Back to real therapy :)

Posted by Dinah on June 27, 2008, at 19:49:02

Last session we talked about some problems I was having with my husband.

This time we talked about an extremely delicate topic. One that I am always reluctant to discuss with him.

Both times he was great. Very therapist-like. But also very him. He knew I was worried today about whether he'd think badly of me for what I'd told him, so he really did a good job of reassuring me before I left. And even asked if I'd like a hug. It really was a tangible and visceral way to say he didn't find me disgusting. And absolutely right in this situation.

Aside from psychicly checking out how he felt at the beginning of the session, I didn't really need to discuss him or our relationship at all. He felt like his usual self, and he was not only Therapist X, but also X the therapist.

It is so nice to get back to normal.
