Hi Monty Girl,

You are not alone. My T is humanistic, with some gestalt and a psychodynamic approach. For me, it has been a great fit. I know CBT can be great for some people, but it honestly would drive me nuts.

Sometimes I worry about how people on here might respond, because my sessions with T will sometimes run over, or he'll give me a hug if I need it...all things I read are not encouraged in certain styles of therapy. (But, those were just fears -- everyone in this community has been wonderful.)

I'd love to hear more about your therapy, and why it works well for you. If it helps you, that is really all that is important, IMHO.
