I have been seeing my therapist since October. This is the first time I have ever stayed consistently going to a therapist and now she is leaving. It took me months just to be able to open up and talk to her on a normal level. Even this being said I still shell up and shut down when she brings up things I am uncomfortable with...how am I supposed to deal with a new person. It's just going to take another two months to get used to being around this new person. I felt like I was making progress finally and being able to redirect my thought process a little better than the non existent ability to do so before therapy. Rite at this moment it feels pivotal for me to stay with therapy. What did you do when starting with a new therapist? How did it go?
