Hi,

I'm meeting a new counselor tomorrow. I have had a very difficult time trying to find a counselor these past couple of months, since my former counselor left at the end of May. I'd be so thankful if this was a good match! This has been a hard time. I'm so eager for this to work out.

I guess I am writing to ask for good thoughts if possible. :-) Thanks.

Take care,
ErinBear

Good luck Erin! It is hard to find someone you like and trust, particularly when you didn't want to give up what you had in the first place. I hope it goes well.

It's hard to see new T's the relationships can be so close. I hope this one works well for you and in time you are just as pleased with this one as the one you use to see

Hi Candybear,

It's true, it is hard to start again. But I'm hoping it is possible to find another working relationship that can be good again, even if it is good in a different way. Hopefully this can be another good relationship. Thanks so much for your good wishes! It helps!

Take care,
ErinBear

Hi Bipolar Bear,

Thanks for the good wishes. Yes, I had an appointment this morning, and I'm thankful to report I had a good meeting! I feel quite hopeful, and encouraged. He seemed very friendly, thoughtful, and caring. I was also very happy to see that he had a teddy bear in the office! This is a good sign! I go back next week.

Thanks to you and to everyone for the good thoughts. I'm very hopeful about the meeting I had today, and the potential for another good working relationship.

Take care,
ErinBear

Thanks Sky! It looks good at this point, so we'll give it a try and see how things go. But definitely the first meeting was very positive, and I feel hopeful and encouraged. I feel really thankful for that!

Thanks, Sky.

Take care,
