I get all triggered when my T suggests I take more time in between sessions. I seem to take it as a big rejection. I see her every week and every now and again she asks if I want an extra week in between. I’ve asked why and she says people need more time in between sometimes. Then I feel like a stage 5 clinger if I dont go with it.

It’s great that she’s not just all about money and making people come every week to keep seeing her etc. but I just feel rejected and bad when she says it, like she’s phasing me out and I am powerless because I cant say anything when feelings of not being important, being bad etc just get triggered and I feel like I should disappear.

Does anyone else’s T do this ? I hate that it’s even a thing. I just want a standard weekly thing that I don’t have to feel stupid or pathetic for wanting.
