> The money issue is touchy for most of us I think. At least for me, I don't want to demand yet another thing from my therapist. But I think the idea of paying someone to listen to you is still touchy and sets off so many sensitive feelings that don't match our intellect.

>Yes I hate talking about money! Not only because of the reality that we are paying them for what they do, but for some reason I feel like I failure when I can't afford something. (Not sure where that came from?)
When I left last week, I just sensed that she was offering me both days; but I just played dumb and said see you Thursday. Maybe I will address this with her this week. If I could, I'd love to go twice a week, and considering all these feelings I have when I leave, I think it would be quite helpful for me to go more often. It's funny because even she says that once, or even twice a week isn't much, and tells me how years ago people would go 5 days. Ahhh if only I could go 5 days!!LGL
