How often do you have your therapy session?

Posted by lookdownfish on November 12, 2003, at 16:52:34

I have been seeing my (psychodynamic) therapist once a week for about 7 months, for depression and anxiety. She is really pushing me to go twice a week. But I don't know whether I want to get any more dependent on her. I've got a huge crush on her, so obviously I would love to see more of her, but probably not for the right reasons. If I could be convinced that we are getting somewhere, I would do it, but how do I know its going to help? At the moment, I feel the therapy is helping me by containing the problem, not actually solving it. The other problem is, I don't think my husband would be very supportive of a second session, due to expense. Does anyone have any views? Does it make a big difference going twice weekly?
Thanks
