I'm not looking for any deep work (I've done enough of that to choke a horse). Anyway it sounds like she understands what I'm looking for. So I'm cautiously optimistic that this will help. I think about L every freaking day, multiple times a day, and still talk to her in my head every night. I want that to go away. My first session with R (new, short-term t) is next week.

I really hope it helps Artie. It's so difficult letting go of long term therapy relationship that you've had a huge emotional investment in. It's perfectly normal to constantly think about an ex-T you were close to. It kind of reinforces the fact that you've internalised the good work you did with her, and that's not a bad thing... But I'm sure your new T will tell you that. [emoji4] Good luck next week with R.
