Update-
Hi All,
Thank you for caring and asking me how it went!
While I was waiting for T to come out of her previous session, I was looking at my notes and feeling anxious, yet good. T walked her client to the front desk and gave her a hug! I had never seen T give a hug to another client in the waiting room before. I admit I was jealous and secretly wanted that to be me!
Anyway, I had a great session. It was tough at times. We didn't even get to talking about terminating. I felt sooo close to T! I didn't want to leave. We explored some of my family secrets that I recently found out about. She tried to help me put together some pieces and asked me to talk about what I was feeling when she couldn't read me. When I asked T when the next appointment should be, she said two weeks. I asked for a one week due to my schedule. She said that would be fine-what ever I wanted to do. T also disclosed a lot about herself in session (family history), so I believe she took a few extra minutes with me to make up for it.
I didn't ask for a hug even though I desperately wanted one. I'm still afraid to ask for what I need. That's one of those areas I'm going to work on.
I'm looking forward to my session this week! Hooray! I still have a tough homework assignment to get done before then though. Also, my boss doesn't seem too thrilled that I asked off early again this week for an appointment. Oh well...I told my boss I would work late or come in early the day before.
Ok...gotta go to bed now....
Thank you again for caring so much peeps! Love you all!
