Just sharing my great story about my T. We had one of those wonderful connection days. We were wearing the same color even. I love that! We were discussing some tough issues. She nudged me to go deeper and deal with some childhood stuff. I started tearing up as I was starting to talk. T started tearing up right along with me.
I felt that empathy connection with her being right along with me. I was able to make it through talking with her there. By the end of the session I desperately wanted a hug, but I didn't ask for one. When I looked in her eyes and saw her body language it was almost as if she was debating whether she should move in for a hug. She came closer to me, but at that point it was chit chat like and we were at the front desk, so we didn't hug. At some point I need to just ask for one. I think that I need to do that. I scheduled for one week, so we can continue our deep conversation. I usually don't go that often, but I feel we are really hitting on some things that I need to resolve.
Before we started the deep stuff T was talking about our ending in a way. ugh. That was bittersweet. By the end of session T was saying that I could come talk to her soon about what we had been discussing, so I scheduled right away.
Well, thank you all for reading. I need to go to bed. Tough emotional day and I'm running on little sleep as well....
