If you find someone you can trust and vibe with, and who knows what they are doing, then it can be a transforming experience every session. We got a long way to go but every week is progress

Did you have to go through a few therapists before u found the right one? I was referred to one and she’s lovely but it’s not really helping with the deep stuff but also don’t know if it’s the impulsive Aries in me that just wants to get it done quick

I went through some when I first tried years ago to address some stuff, but they didn’t quite work out. This one I met when I was in treatment and was able to stay on with her after I completed. I’ll say, be patient with it. We didn’t really start diving into the weeds until many months into it. Lots of foundation building first went a long way

Thanks for the advice I’ll definitely stick with it and see where it goes. She’s been talking a lot about inner child and self love which are things I struggle with.

Walking into trauma work can stir up a lot before it even starts. It did for me. I had to take breaks in between my sessions.
Reminding myself that the stress is part of the process helped take the edge off. I swear by breath work.
