I am really looking forward to my session today. It has been a very long time since I have felt this kind of positivity about therapy. I feel enthusiastic, motivated, creative, interested, warm. She's my second therapist since my original therapist abandoned the work and I am hopeful about her, the new work, and the relationship. We have been working together about six months. She is very smart and is a well known figure in her field. I can see that her reputation is well founded. It's reassuring.

Of course, there is the risk that I will lose sight of all of this when she pisses me off or my avoidant parts take over, but for now I am up for the contact.

Is this the honeymoon period?
