my therapist has given me both birthday and christmas gifts...actually something of value to me and one of my alters (a child of 5)...they are gifts of things which she feels hold meaning and value and are great. last year for christmas we got "its a wonderful life" dvd since she said we spent alot of time telling her we flet like we didn't matter and she said we did.

we usually try to get her something too...this year our brain is worn out from the stress of the year (overmedication, memory loss of 9 months, brain damage etc) and cash is tight so instead we got her dog something....we donated to a basset rescue and had an ornament made for her (she's a lab).

she is an awesome therapist and we feel so blessed to have her work with us
