I have sessions like that especially of I have had a couple of very intense appointments. Sometimes I will start thr appointment by saying I need a lighter session. The other times sessions like that happen are when I may be feeling down and not have the energy to go all in that week. T and I have discussed it and she believes appointments like that could actually be helpful for either relationship building or helping her understand where I am at. Often I think I wasted the hour but remind myself that sometimes I need that break but still need her support and the consistency of the appointment.
Normally the next week I naturally have a normal appointment.
