LT, would you potentially be able to see a second therapist? I understand the reluctance to give up on a therapist who you feel connected to but what about seeing a trauma therapist even if short term

He has said he'd be open to my doing EMDR with someone else while seeing him, so that could be an option. I'll look into it. I had contacted an internal family systems therapist maybe a year and a half ago, and Dr. T also seemed open to my working with both of them at once. Though I don't know if I burned the bridge with that therapist by saying I wasn't ready to do that work at that time--I feel like I left him hanging for a while. I'd feel reluctant to reach out again unless I was definitely ready.
