I went to the new therapist today, and I think I will like working with her. She was direct with questions, had a caring manner, and made me feel pretty comfortable.

Then I get home and I had a message from the "only four visits" t, the one I wasn't too impressed with. I will admit that my message was probably cryptic when I called last week. I said that I wanted to take a break for at least a month and a half, until my summer break, and then reevaluate what I want to do.

So she called and left a message that over a month is probably too long and she is going to call my pdoc to see if this is healthy for me! Now I am in a lying mess, well not really, because I thought that the wait would leave her satisfied. I am glad that I didn't leave the contact message for the pdoc with the new therapist yet!

Now I probably have to be assertive, and this is something that I cannot do very well, if at all!

Hmmm. I think I have done something similar--shopping around before kissing off a professional I didn't like. Maybe you can write your message down and read it off when you call your former T's office......I'm sure you aren't the only patient who has done something like that, and probably with her, too!
