Hmm; I appreciate the thought-provoking questions. But I don't think I'm using this situation to bolt because I have schizoid tendencies. I actually wanted to quit because the change was too much for me, but decided to give it a try. I don't think it is too much for me to explore my options. The therapist is supposed to provide a safe space. She was open to the idea of us checking out the new room while we still have our usual room. But why can't she tell me if shorter, pro-rated sessions are a possibility? Why does she have to wait and see? I need to know what my options are in order to feel safe, less anxious, and more secure moving forward. Is it about money and profit for her? She did mention something about maintaining the frame of the nature of this work. She was talking about how this is a professional relationship where I'm paying her. I agree. But I don't think that asking for shorter, pro-rated sessions during such a difficult time violates the frame of therapy.
