See, I don't want to report her, I care about her and her wellbeing. I am actually really concerned that she is not coping or having some kind of burn out issues. Even though she hasn't shown up for three sessions, she is still the best t I have had and the thoughts of not going back is breaking my heart.
I agree with you that change cannot happen unless one is receptive and open.
Thank you for being so honest about your experiences of alcoholism. I really think this is what is happening to my t, confronting her will not help. I really worry about her. I haven't told anyone about this only on her because I want to protect her. I would like to help her and I am unsure how to do this. Your post was very helpful and insightful. I think like you said you have to admit to yourself you have a problem, whether my t doesn't want to admit to me that she a problem or she doesn't want to admit to herself, I am not sure of that. Perhaps she doesn't trust that I could hold it or that she doesn't want it contaminating our relationship but has already filtered through and has damaged our relationship.
