Today was the first "official" session I had with T after her break (by official, I mean on our normal scheduled days). I had to schedule an early session last week because she had just come back from vacation and I was struggling.

I felt a lot more comfortable talking about my attachment to her, and how it'd gotten worse during her vacation, but I said I still didn't think that those were 'normal' feelings. She said I need to stop overthinking EVERYTHING all the time and that my feelings of attachment towards her are completely normal. I said that I was still feeling bad for scheduling an extra appt last week, and she said that she herself has done it a few times with her own therapist when things were difficult.

I like it how she validates my feelings and doesn't make me feel like I'm doing something awful.
