Both of mine are in their early 60s. This is fine with me although it means both will retire about 2 years apart and that will be incredibly hard as by then I'll have seen each for over 20 years.

I like that they are older than I am but that's not my most important criteria. For whatever reason I work best with male therapists with PhDs. Who knows if that's what I'll end up with next but that's my history. Pdoc wise it hasn't mattered as much although I have liked having one female provider. Now that I'm done with menopause and have had a hysterectomy I'm not sure how much that matters though; not many "women's issues" now.

I really just want these providers to be my provideres forever. Not realistic but if I could have whatever I wanted that would be it.
