Dreading therapy on Wednesday after my therapist refused point blank to see me twice a week for a short period of 1-6 months just to get me through several things. Her excuse: You don't need it! It's too intense. You're not in crisis.

Surely it's my decision, as I'm paying out of pocket, it's up to me, I'm the client.

I know plenty of people from the UK on this forum and elsewhere who are as I say from the UK and see their therapists twice a week.

I have booked to go to a nice quiet woodland pub for lunch after therapy on Wednesday to cheer me up, because I am not looking forward to the session.
