Wynne... I've been following your search for a new Tfella. I wish you much luck on your search and I think you are going about it in a very sensible way. I never had to search for a T I sort of just fell into therapy with him. He was recommended by the school for my child to see and after a few weeks I thought...wow I'd like to have some sessions for myself with this guy... he's really good. The rest is history.

PL...That is a very good strategy of writing things down for your T to read. When I have a hard time bringing up a subject for whatever reason, I send my T an email and alert him to the fact. And sometimes I ask him to bring up the subject because I cannot. He is very good about it and this system works well. I also will write stuff down and take it with me but instead of just giving it to him to read...I read it to him out loud. And sometimes that is excruciatingly difficult and painful but I do it. He always tells me how brave and courageous I am. Maybe one day I will really believe it.

And not to get totally OT...yes this is a great place to hang out when you are trying to survive to your next session.

TN
