Dear calisister:

Interesting, you mentioning that you see it like a therapist who cannot do couple therapy with her client.. my therapist, during my first and only quality psychotherapy, did just that: one to one therapy with me and couple therapy with me and my husband, at times. It was not a problem at all. A good therapist does not… take sides, but instead is loyal to exploring the truth. With that aim, it is not a conflict of interest situation.

I respect your choice to not share here anymore and I invite you to share again if you change your mind and heart.

I see your hope in quality psychotherapy, one where you persist, work hard (relaxing will be part of that hard work!), and continue for a long while.
