I'm nervous but hopeful. First step I want to take is to ask this therapist if it's possible that she can see me once a week. I'm not the type to ask for things, even things I have a right to. And I am sorta assigning this as a step in the right direction, to develop a backbone and kindly demand that my appt.'s not be 3 weeks apart.

I'm glad you are having your first appointment. I hope you connect with the therapist and can begin developing a relationship. Ask for what you need. Be honest. ANd remember too that if this therapist doesn't seem to be a good fit for you, you can find another.

That is an interesting idea. To write things down. I think I shall do that. I've been thinking about so many issues I want her to know about and that I want to sort out and that might be a good way to keep track of them.

Thanks!
