that was the first thing i was going to ask her. but how will that help? i'm afraid it will automatically put her on the defensive. how would that have helped you?what else can i do to salvage this relationship? how do i approach this? i'm really angry, i think. but i'm also hurt and scared.
> My old therapist and I had a really rough couple of months and I ended up leaving her. I now wish that I had asked her one particular thing when I was trying to decide whether to leave or not. I wish that I had asked her if she thought that it might be beneficial for me to change therapists. I wish that we had talked about the pros and cons before things were so awful that I couldn't stay no matter what.
