I finally got myself to leave messages for two prospective therapists. I have not been happy with my current therapist of 6 months and need someone who can help me better. I have to say that psychologists have been more helpful for me than social workers in the past, so I called two psychologists that seemed like potential good matches. There are few options left that accept my health insurance. The two I called are about 20 mins from my home by car, which is something I can manage as long as the roads aren't snowy/icy. Calling to "sell myself" in a sense is anxiety-provoking. Will either call back? If either or both do, are they taking new clients?

The idea of starting ALL over again, again, is very stressful, but I am wasting my time with my current therapist. I have to be proactive at finding good support. I must try to move forward. I really need to. Too much time is passing.

UPDATE: I actually just heard back from one of the psychologists. I actually have an appointment with her tomorrow at 9 am, though any regular appointments won't be that early in the future. I'm a little nervous. I need to finally take a much-needed shower. I don't want to look too shabby the first time I meet her. The drive is supposed to be about 20 mins, but I'll leave very early since it is commuter time still.
