I'm glad everyone liked my T's analogy. She gave me another one today that I didn't like as much.
Anyway, it is a hard decision, not only financially, but emotionally. I do think you will benefit from the extra session. I see my T 3x per week and I never call between sessions, or if I do, I'm leaving information, not asking her to call me back. In that regard, it's helpful.
We talked today about a "therapy box". And I get to open that box when we meet and then put it back on her shelf before I leave. That way, I can leave her office not holding onto the feelings we just opened up. I liked the idea of dumping everything in her lap better. At least then she was sitting with it. (And that wasn't even the analogy I didn't like today)
