Therapy definitely is a process and very hard work, so it makes sense that you may feel like leaving a session.
Let me ask you this, have you thought about WHY you feel the need to leave the therapy session?

Reflect on this to give you some insight.

I already told you what I think, based on my personal experience.

What **you** think is far more important. It is **your** therapy.

I think your therapist knows you, and you should try to do what she suggests for you to do.

We don't know you or what issues you are referring to, but if you'd like to share with us some time, we are here to listen. Completely up to you though.

Wishing you the best!

But, over a month ago, she couldn't take my insurance anymore, and I had to stop...
