> I see her because she's with the uni, and free for me. She's a behaviourist, and that's not really want I want/need. The only reason I keep going to her is because I've heard the other ones aren't any better.
ah. i hear you there. but that being said... i think some therapists really are able to transcend their theory. but that being said... that kind of relationship can take a bit of time.
> Maybe I'll just see if she can help get me into long term therapy, and help me with study skills. It's so hard going to someone that I dont' like
yeah. it is hard going to someone you don't really like. is it that you don't really like her, or that you don't really like her approach? sometimes they amount to the same... but sometimes people will alter their approach if they see that theirs isn't really so very helpful...
most of the CBT therapists I have seen have been very behaviourally focused (that and cognitive restructuring). also very focused on my listing targets for change and therapy is about applying cognitive behavioural interventions to get the change happening.
not so helpful for me...
sigh.
i think it sucks when places only have one type of therapy on offer...
