Just wondering who here is willing to say if they see a therapist/counsellor and if so, how long have they been doing so for? And how long are they likely to continue doing so? Something that was just said to me made me wonder am I being pathetic in being more than a year in to weekly sessions and feeling like several more months at least feel needed.
I've seen several. What happens every time is that I spend a few weeks telling them what I think it's all the relevant information and then just as I think the actual therapy part might be about to start, they say they think we've "reached a natural stopping point" or something like that and end the seasons. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. One said I "might never be ready to open up" but I'd answered every question honestly and volunteered a lot of information. I'm never aggressive or anything so I don't know why they're so keen to get rid of me.
