I don't

and to be honest It doesnt bother me if she doesn't

If I ask her a question, she gives me her best answer
If I am unable to solve a problem she helps me facilitate a solution
She helps me understand my past and how it relates to the present
Shes working with me to help me control my anxiety and depression

I dont call her between sessions or e-mail her anymore....at one point I did

I have learned to rely on myself and my wife for support

my time between sessions has grown from once a week to now almost once a month and soon I will thank her and move on

I learned some lessons the hard way growing up and the world kicked me in the as% more than once....I went to therapy because I had no answers for my fears and worries

now I have had an opportunity to get those answers and learn the only fear is fear itself

I know many of you on this forum are facing much more difficult battles in your lives and I have no intention of making your situations
comparable to mine....everyone is different

I think all therapists have to have compassion and genuine concern for each client, but whether they actually care is open to debate thus let the debate begin!
