I'll bring it up on Thursday when I see Marianne again. I don't think my insurance will cover therapy with her because she's an LCSW but she sees people on a sliding fee scale and that might work.
"Choosing" one person "over" another is difficult for me. My mom always made a big deal about her being the most important person in my life. If I showed deference to anyone else, she would get pissed at me, shut me out. I know that not only is Susan not my mom, but doesn't show in any way that she would react like that. But it's still scary for me.
I guess I should just start with talking to Marianne and see where things go from there.

"What is Real? asked the Velveteen Rabbit one day.
"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."
"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.
"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."
