How do you leave a therapist who is unable to meet your needs?
|
You cancel your next appointment and find another therapist... check with your own physician for a referral if you need one.
It's not uncommon to go thru several before you find one that works for you - and you generally know immediately whether or not you have a connection with them...
Over the years, I've gone to several... and never lasted more than 2 sessions with each... The first one got ticked at me because I wanted nothing to do with medicating myself... The second decided all my problems were related to my sister being married and having children and me not. Another wanted to discuss my childhood when Iwent in to discuss a particular issue... get to the childhood stuff later- I had a purpose and adeadline...
Don't feel bad, you owe this therapist nothing... you are going into therapy for yourself... if it doesn't work wiht person A - move on...
