Me too (finding a new T) **triggers**

Posted by toetapper on January 24, 2007, at 18:02:53

My husband and I are trying to find someone who can guide us through some CSA/PTSD/SI/ED-related issues that are really starting to affect our marriage, we've had 5 first sessions the last three weeks, here are the results:

#1. 25 min late, no apology or explanation, session ended 20 min later, full fee

#2. "Maybe what you need to do is get in touch with what sexually satisfies you and then simply communicate that to your husband, have you tried that?"

#3. "I'm really hoping to fill my Weds 4pm slot, if both of you are telling me you can only do 9am I have to wonder how committed you are to your marriage."

#4. "What I'm hearing you say is you aren't sure if you ever want to have sex again, if you're that unwilling to change I'm not sure how I can help you."

#5. "I could do a morning appointment but all my other clients are in the afternoon, but I could do a morning appointment it's just that I'd have to sit around for 4 hours until my next appointment, but I could do mornings, sure."

Unbelievably, all 5 of those were referrals!

We need someone who understands enough about CSA/PTSD and how that unfolds in an existing, long-term relationship, but also has some background in couples. Phillipa, I'm right there with you, I don't know who or what to ask...

Like so many others here I am so very close to the end of my rope, ANY ideas, thoughts, suggestions, reality checks, etc. are appreciated.
