Tuesday session was really good. A lot of crying. She cried too. We talked about several different things. Some of it personal. I got to see a picture of her daughter. Beautiful baby. She actually is able to do a virtual session on Friday, so I took her up on her offer so that we can prepare for our first in-person session next Tuesday.

We’ve also been doing some texting about our last session. I did some more apologizing in the texts. She said she was concerned about my apologies. That she believes expressing those raw emotions was healing. She doesn’t want me to avoid the “messiness”. I told her it’s not just about protecting her. It’s also that I don’t like how I behaved. I want to change so I become a better person and feel better about myself. I told her I would continue to be open and honest. But I want to be more respectful and loving.
