I understand being too busy to delve deeply. But therapy doesn't have to be distressing every time. My therapist does a lot of propping of my defense mechanisms when I've got work deadlines. Keeps me up and running when I might crash otherwise. Can the two of you work on developing this sort of therapy mode when you need it?
Or taking a break is fine too, if it's ok with all of you. I often find it's way more trouble than it's worth, but then my emotional side is a real emotional blackmailer/terrorist.
(I'm a bit peeved right now because I'm going for a *third* session this week tomorrow. Dratted emotional self.)
I have to say that you should really appreciate that your therapist would do this. Mine wouldn't.
