There is no rapport here. If you do not feel safe and comfortable with this woman you should have every right to ask for someone else. If you do not feel this is a good time for therapy you have every right to decline it. The question is whether there are other, nonprofessional people that you trust when you are feeling paranoia who can help you factor those feelings out of the equation, while staying true to the gut feelings that confirm you are person worth listening to. Then you can listen to yourself, and make yourself heard. I'm rooting for you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5159777151156423826.post-75200009042211864552014-11-09T13:50:43.372-08:002014-11-09T13:50:43.372-08:00Well Kimmie I think you are right to not trust her...Well Kimmie I think you are right to not trust her, what an uncaring way to treat you, where is her empathy and she is a therapist geez can do without people like her. Obviously up to you but I would ask for someone else she clearly has no idea how to treat people, she is supposed to be there for support and to help you talk and work things out, something she is not doing. Btw if you have a phone that can record pop it in your pocket so when you have your sessions you know what was said and by who (for you to know) Love and hugs KimmieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08393351068597804556noreply@blogger.com
