Hi Comrade,

Thank you for your response.

I feel as though she's missed a lot whilst we've been working online.

That is a decision I made for the sake of my emotional safety.
I spent part of every session crying when we worked online during the pandemic, without anything significant having gone wrong.

I could not face having to talk about this with connectivity rather than connection.
Yes, I would have created new rivers, but who does that benefit?

Definitely not me.

If therapy is not a place where someone can hope to be met in the acuteness of their grief, then what is?

This latest facet of my experience is too big to bring into a Teams window, and now I am just hoping for some indication that she really understands how difficult this new element is.

Take care,

Lost
