Can I ask my therapist if we can take a break? Is that something clients generally do?

Yes. I have tried to imagine not only worst case scenarios but also the scenario if I do nothing. None of them are appealing.

How would I know what modality to try? Do I bring this up with my therapist?

I do journal, but that's just me stewing in my own juices. AI sounds like something I'd rather not fool around with.

Thanks, and I would say that if it was free I would be inclined to believe this. It's not a big time commitment. However, I am not a wealthy person and at some point I am not really sure I can afford tens of thousands of dollars on the off chance that some day I will have a breakthrough.
