I have been seeing my T now for almost a year. She is a great therapist. Very responsive and always there for me when I need her for the most part but she takes a TON of vacations. On most of them she does allow phone and email and text contact which is new for me. In the past when a therapist was on vacation there was no reaching them. But now she's going out of town (well that's how she put it anyway) and won't be available for 6 days, then she will be back and available by phone but not for sessions. I really don't handle these vacas very well and she does this a lot. I mean in the almost 1 year I have seen her I would say she has taken the equivalant of 3 months off. Granted these are dispersed into one and two week increments but none the less it feels excessive. I don't know why I am writing about this other than that I am upset. I am sort of angry that she is going away again. She knows I am angry, I told her. lol. She says "We have plenty of time to figure out where and how you can get support while I am gone." That is BS. No one is going to replace her and frankly all the things she's come up with are things I know I won't do, like call her partner whom I don't know from a hole in the ground. UGH
