In reply to Left T - still can't find a T:(, posted by kerria on March 25, 2006, at 13:12:36
Hi Kerria, I'm pretty new here so I dont know the story about what happened with the last T.. so if what I say it totally off/not possible, then I'm sorry.
Sometimes if you call the local hospital, they will give you referrals of people in the community. Theyre usually pretty reputable that way.. not always (like with any other method), but it might be worth a try.
I've actually found almost all my Ts in the past in the yellow pages. I'm sure many people on here would recommend against it (for good reason), but I think its okay as long as you sort of interview them the first meeting and feel them out. I've never had any problems.
Im so sorry that person told you that you just "have to do the work yourself." It seems very insensitive and I'd wonder if that person has ever experienced anythnig like what you're experiencing. Obviously therapy is about "doing your own work", but it can be awfully hard without a T helping you along.
I hope this helped some. I'm sorry you're having such a hard time.. it can be so hard when things go wrong in therapy relationships. Hang in there.
