Oh, yeah -- you betcha!

I don't know what it is, but I do know what you mean. I've had the same reaction at times. Less as though I was the whore, but more like I had to pay for it... (Oh, yeah, I guess I do have to pay for it -- if the "it" is talking...)

I don't know what might help -- ask to be billed? Or ask if you could pay at the beginning of the month, or the beginning of the session?

Oh! Hey, how could I forget -- this is therapy you're talking about: have you talked about this? (My therapist would be so proud of me for asking...) It's probably not that uncommon to feel that way -- I think it's because we do form an emotional connection to our therapists, and then it gets reduced back to money. Whyever it happens, though -- it still interferes, so it's still worth discussing.

I'm glad you're seeing someone you're liking.
