(((Karen))),
I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It seems so strange and wrong to me that Bubba isn’t giving you any options other than group therapy or no therapy. That is what he’s saying, no? Did you ask him specifically why you can not continue individual therapy with him? Has his supervisor dictated this change? If that’s the case, why aren’t they offering to switch therapists for you?
I think you need some additional information from Bubba or his supervisor to process all of this (either with Bubba or eventually, with a new therapist). I might suggest talking to Bubba’s supervisor yourself. There must be a reason for this “request”. It doesn’t seem they’ve given you much of a chance to address any the issues they are trying to address by switching you to group therapy.
Sorry if I’m not very helpful. I feel like I have a lot of questions for you, but maybe that’s just because (at least in my experience) sometimes it’s difficult to relay the whole story to us Babblers.
I know you’re a smart girl, so you will do what’s best for you. Please just remember that this is *your* choice. Don’t do anything you’re not comfortable with and keep yourself informed. (I know you're good at asking the tough questions :).)
Take care,
All Done
