it's hard to decide what crisis to deal with in therapy.. the current every day ones, or the past stuff that is bursting upward like a volcano. How do we decide? flip a coin? My life has been a train wreck for a loooong time, my T and i half-joke about it... "how was your week?" "has there ever been a week where i just say that it was fine and nothing happened?" He always smiles and says that no, none spring to mind.
what i decided is that the deeper stuff takes precident generally because i think the other stuff tends to symptoms rather than causes.. But, i addressed the issue with my T. Sometimes something is so stressful i have to address it now..like your boss thing. i would recommend writing about the current crisis stuff as much as possible.. as an outlet.
maybe you can make a plan for therapy.. like a routine.
i'm grasping at straws to help :o(
it's so hard when you can't go as often as you need. Can you judge how often you could handle? Is it more than you do now? You have a hard task trying to balance your needs with that of a young family.
another straw.. maybe you can talk with your H and come up with a better working solution. Is he supportive? Any way he can help more with little one? or perhaps a sitter?
i don't know.. grasping. i can't imagine trying to take care of a child in this. i'm barely taking care of me.
