Hi all,

As I've been marinating in my concern over going virtual during the summer, I've also been thinking about the concept of progress in therapy.

For me, working virtually means that my emotions bolt for the door before I have a chance to process them. R describes this as authentic, but for me it's excruciating.

Granted, it's easier to measure progress if you have concrete goals that you're working towards.

I sometimes feel as though I struggle to see the progress from session to session, and yet R has said previously that part of her job is to 'hold up a mirror' so that I can see the progress I'm making.

If you think about your progress in your therapy, how do you measure it?

Per session, or in terms of the bigger picture?

Whilst I'm being beaten with the Grief Stick again it's especially hard to see mine.

I wanted to know whether I'm the only one.

Thanks,

Lost
