>> I'm so sorry you felt that you had to leave your T (but know you had good reasons), and I guess I have a little hope, still, that after a while you might feel like going back and trying to work through some of those difficult issues with her. It's so helpful, for us all, to be able to have a new and good experience with our Ts, and it sounds as if you were having a mixture of good and not-so good experiences with her. Maybe you could leave the longer-term options open?
Thank you for validating my reasoning. I do wonder from time to time if I'm being overly sensitive (probably), or if I'm seeing this situation in the wrong way since I've never had T before and don't really have anything (or anyone) else to compare it to. My intuition tells me a lot of it is her issue, but, either way it still feels really bad.
I wouldn't be able to continue with her past next May, when I graduate. I'm a grad student and she's a Uni counselor and doesn't have a private practice, so once I'm no longer a student I wouldn't be able to see her therapeutically anymore anyway. Besides, we've been banging our heads for over a year now....I doubt another few months would make much of a difference. I just hate that it had to end this way.
Thank you for responding.
