It's complicated. My therapist of 12 years is closing his practice. He has many patients. He is willing to see me but partly on Skype and, less so, in person. He has another position with an employer.
As he is not seeing other patients, I am in a tough spot. I don't feel I can easily negotiate. If I push my non-Skype position, I may lose the offer to see me at all. I don't know what to do.
I am very attached to my therapist. I desperately want to continue seeing him. (We have worked so long and come so far). I am afraid the therapy will be very different if on Skype. I don't know what to do.
Perhaps I should wait. He just announced this and is under much pressure from many about leaving. I don't want to ruin my chances of continued therapy. Any advice? Feel desperate.
