Should I switch? I change appointments from every week to every two, with the thought and discussion if I need to go back to weekly I can. She's booked a month and a half out. I don't really feel like she's that helpful to me, I've had better therapists. Should i just suffer through or find another therapist?

I think it's a good idea to find one who you find helpful and who can meet your needs. No harm in going T shopping.

If it were me, I would first talk to her about what’s not working. Thenid seeif there was any improvement and if not, move on.

From your own words - if you don't feel she's helpful to you, why should you suffer through?
I would look for a better match elsewhere. |

It wouldn't hurt to see who else is out there that might be a better fit for your needs. I know it's an arduous process but it can be well worth it. HUGS Kit

Sounds like a good time to start looking for a therapist you feel better about with more availability. Best of luck.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
