It's so good to hear from you. And your T is right, it takes a special client/therapist relationship to form just the perfect working alliance that is just right for you!
Last time we spoke, I remember how hard it was for you to cut back on your sessions. You weren't convinced it was right for you. I'm still at 3 times a week and sometimes I think I just need to cut back, for cutting back sake. My T gently reminded me that how often I come isn't an indication of my mental health, rather how often I come gives us more opportunity to work closer/deeper with a better sense of continuity.
Your post brought a smile to my face. I'm so happy you got that connection back. It's so precious and fragile (I might add).
Have you gone back to laying down? I'm still there but more and more often, I want to pop up. But once I'm seated, I feel even more awkward there! I just don't get it. Hiding behind her desk would be ideal even if I would feel 100% silly.
Thanks for checking in.
