It's my fault we get rushed at the end of the session. I disassociate and then realize it's almost over and start talking. But she's always been there for me. If I get lost in something we're talking about, she doesn't leave me there - she knows how to pull me out and helps me to feel better/more stable. She reminds me that she is human and that she will make mistakes like everybody else.

She always tells me it’s not a negative that I am responsible for my own feelings and my own healing and that her job is to guide me. It is a positive because it gives me back the power that was stolen from me as a child
She's been more patient than I thought anyone could be and keeps working through the same fears over and over again.

If there is something painful to talk about, she tries to be very careful/gentle.

I really don't know what's right. I know it's supposed to be that you can say anything to your tdoc, and they will be ok with it and with you, but they are human, right?

And in some way I think this is not about her, it's about me trusting myself to share my experiences. But it IS about her -- she said it, it upset me.

I just want comfort, I guess -- not to feel so alone in my upset.
