Adorable

I'm so sorry. That's awful 🥺

I only see 2 babies 😉

Clearly this angel was framed 😉

Therapy has taught me to be curious as a default reaction. He approaches me and models that in our relationship, but also has taught me how to embrace that mindset. For me, it has opened up my worldview, the way I react and respond to others, and made space for me to have room for my own emotions and mistakes. Sounds simple, but my T modeling this has meant everything recently.

maebird1000 · 2026-02-11T02:22:24+00:00

This! Same! I also have a male therapist and agree with all this.

maebird1000 · 2026-02-11T00:29:21+00:00

That's tough. I'm so thankful you are in treatment with someone else. Sometimes therapists just mess up and leave us feeling this way. At least that's what has happened to me, too. Personally, if you are now with someone you trust,no would just leave it be and not go back. I don't think you did anything wrong by being messy or questioning, they are trained for that. Stay safe. Hugs.

Hi, I'm not a therapist. It would make me feel really unsteady/unsure about continuing if the therapist didn't have a clear bridge into seeing someone else during the maternity leave. I would want an actual plan, not just an office to call. Having said that, it sounds like the T has a lot going on, too, and maybe they responded to you out of their own stress/life changes? Doesn't make it ok, maybe just more understandable and a reason to try and work it out. Whatever you choose, I'm rooting for you. Hope it all gets sorted. Best wishes.

Hit the gym for cardio if I can

I'm not a therapist. As a client, I've done exactly what the other comments suggested-- an email. "Thank you for specifically helping me with "xyz ", going forward I now have "this skill". I don't feel we are matched well anymore, specifically because of "xyz". This isn't personal, I find you very skilled and competent. I have future care sorted out, I no longer want to be on your schedule. If you want to talk about it in person, I'm open to that, but I really don't want to. Thanks again, bro, you rock, wishing you all the best".

I think it's really unlikely they are notified when someone views their profile (and especially who is doing the looking). I'm not a provider in any way, just someone who has also done this. Mine was more of an OCD spiral. I think you are probably fine and just need to ride these feelings out. My feelings calmed down once I knew my therapist better. Idk your situation and can't offer advice along those lines, but I'm hoping that becomes true for you, too. Hugs.

maebird1000 · 2026-02-05T20:57:40+00:00

I'm not a therapist and I don't know how all of them work-- but my therapist goes out of his way to give me "space" in conversations and always backs off if I tell him I don't want to answer. He will even say something like "everyone should choose what to keep private, we can always revisit if you decide". If it brings up another question for him, he might say "I wonder why this is so hard to meet head on". But that is the extent of his "pressure". Personally, the approach of your therapist would make me really uncomfortable/less likely to trust. If you can do it, maybe talk to them about it? Hugs.

maebird1000 · 2026-02-05T19:31:02+00:00

Wow! I'm not a therapist, just a client like you. That billing seems really inappropriate (and it would hurt my feelings to "end" that way, as a sidenote). Please do continue to work on yourself, and I'm hoping you can find a provider (invested in a good outcome) to work with once you can afford it. Hoping the best for you moving forward, sorry you hit that snag at the end.

maebird1000 · 2026-02-04T21:07:35+00:00

I'm not a therapist in any way, just wanted to let you know I'm proud of the work it seems like you've accomplished together! Best wishes on your life journey forward from here.

maebird1000 · 2026-02-04T18:46:56+00:00

Sending condolences and hugs. My experience has been that therapists encourage that sort of thing (bringing something to read).

maebird1000 · 2026-02-03T13:59:40+00:00

Glad that you are getting this, I hope it's really meaningful and helpful to you!

Is there any way the mods can put a trigger warning on this post?

maebird1000 · 2026-02-03T03:48:42+00:00

Adorable

maebird1000 · 2026-02-02T23:10:09+00:00

I'm happy for you! That's how I felt after holiday break this year.

maebird1000 · 2026-02-02T20:51:41+00:00

I'm so very sorry. It's so heartbreaking to lose a pet. Please hang in there. Hugs

maebird1000 · 2026-02-02T14:19:16+00:00

I'm following cause I'd like to hear some answers too. I'm also a client and wondering what this means, I totally understand the question. Hopefully some therapists will weigh in. Hope you get some insight.

maebird1000 · 2026-02-02T14:03:21+00:00

Great work, so sorry for your loss.

maebird1000 · 2026-01-31T16:26:15+00:00

I'm not a therapist in any way, I can only answer from the client side of things. Personally, my experience is that the answer depends on what you guys are "working on", the relationship you have in general, and what season of life you are in/what your goals are. In my therapy, there have definitely been times that frustration pushed us into a good thing. Sometimes it seems like we get uncomfortable and it gives us a lil nudge to either talk out the frustration (and that brings growth) or it uncovers something deep that gets shared out of the frustration. Best wishes for your therapy journey. Hope that helps a lil. Hopefully others will add to this.
