Augist 2002 I started weekly CBT session with a clinical psychologist, Maggie. Maggie was wonderful, we bonded brilliantly and I enjoyed my session with her, as well as the CBT work we did together working fantastically. When I felt bad I could tell her why, and she always helped me sort things out when they felt bad.
Anyway, Maggie left in May to have a baby, and I was re-assigned to Lorna. Lorna decided we only needed to see each other monthly, so I have seen her 3 times in total so far. I just don't feel anything toward her what so ever.. I find her dull, and she sticks really rigidly to the CBT guide book, and we never stray from just working on self esteem using CBT. I don't feel I actually get any support from her, and I'm not getting anything from my sessions anymore. Infact I dread them.I'm in the UK so simply changing therapists isn't an option for me. I'm just really lost at the moment.
Any great words of advice??!
Thanks
