Dear Cali Chica:

You are welcome. Make the best use of this time off healing, sinking and savoring. How exciting, moving to NYC!

Re-associating is possible in the context of a safe relationship. It is possible in therapy if there is that safe (professional) relationship there. But it is possible within a safe personal relationship.

I repeated in the past how important it is that you have a good relationship with your husband, for this very reason,  a person cannot heal and re-associate alone. One safe, loving personal relationship is necessary to have if you aim at healing and re-associating.
