Thank you so much for sharing your experience!  Yeah, I too had no idea how therapy was supposed to work so I just agreed and hoped for the best.

It is so true that good therapist will meet you where you are. As the client, you do not need be anything but authentic. I remember feeling like I was failing because I wasn’t getter better when I thought I was meant to. In reality I just needed to have a different approach from a different person. Patience can be so hard, especially when you’re struggling. Did you have anything that help you be kind to yourself and remain patient?

I’m so glad that you were able to find someone that was able to help you gain a better understanding of yourself!
