So much about therapy was bothering me. The therapeutic alliance is scary and confusing and secure attachment really isn’t my thing.
Past few weeks were terrible for me, full of severe anxiety, having to call her in between sessions twice. My thoughts and feelings have been all tangled up and i don't know where one begins and another end. I wrote her a list of all my fears and i emailed it ahead of session to be discussed when i got there and i was so nervous and even wondered if she's suggest i needed referred to someone else. But my therapist was so awesome with me and reassuring that she is there for me, that it’s ok to feel how i feel. She made so much sense in everything she said and i’m just like….  My session was awesome. It was emotional, authentic, full of heart and openness and just … connection. Love those kind of sessions. Makes up for all the crappy ones.

That kind of connection that you experienced makes it all worthwhile, not to discount the difficulties but to say that I'm glad that you are not struggling like you were and have this to relate to. Keep hold of it so if there is a "next time" you can remember. This type of thing in my own experience has produced a secure attachment out of a history of insecure ones. It is definitely worth pursuing.
