I was referred to my current trauma T 3 years ago after seeing a CBT for 10 years. She was referred to me by my Pdoc for brainspotting. Brainspotting really appealed to me because it is supposed to be faster. My T is a good trauma T and has quite a waitlist so I have been ambivalent about quitting. The talk therapy helps but I don't think that I am capable of brainspotting and feel like I am being gaslighted when she says that I am doing it. I don't feel any differently before or after the supposed brainspotting.

I have been offered another job in a different state and plan on telling T when I see her on Tuesday that I am not coming back due to the job change even though I won't be moving for a month or two.

I would like to tell her that she has helped me and I know that I have more work to do but I would like to avoid the brainspotting stuff altogether. I think that it is total BS or at least it was for me. She may question me about it. I don't want to lie but I don't want her to try and convince me that it worked for me when it didn't.

Just be honest,you do no one any favours by lying. It ma not even come up though. I say wing it, see how you feel at the time.

If you find her a good T perhaps you could ask her not to use that particular technique? You could also say that you would prefer not to discuss its efficacy - you just don't want it - finished. I think that is your prerogative. If she is a good T she should be ok with that.
