I'm really worried that I don't have the right T. Although she asks good questions and is empathic, every time she tries to make an analysis or add something substantive to the conversation, it kind of falls flat. I feel bad because I don't want to say, "No, you've got it all wrong," so I try to find a way to fit it in. But sometimes it just stops me in my tracks. That's not the way it's supposed to work.At least with my old T, this didn't happen. She helped move me forward in the conversation. The problem with her was that I avoided the real issues, so not sure how much good that did me. But at least I felt like we were understanding each other.
In some ways, I think my old T was the best T I'll ever have. In other ways, I realize she was a train wreck. I just don't want to start looking for another T. I'm sorely tempted to email the old T and just give it another whirl. I know I've been through this before. I'll try not to act rashly.
