I have recently been devastated by the actions of my therapist.....She had promised specific dates and times to meet beginning in September and is now not following through with said promise.....she has given these dates and time to someone else......I wonder if she had created this situation because she was no longer wanting to see me.....I have been a crumbled mess now for over a week.....Has anyone out there experienced this type of devastation? If so, how did you ultimately deal with the devastation??

Debra-
I haven't had this type of situation however, it sounds very hurtful.

Did she give a reason for changing the dates? Like besides that she gave them to someone else?

I would think that if she didn't want to see you.. she would be able to tell you...

Do you think that you can confront her with this... just say what you are feeling and ask her outright if she doesn't want to see you any longer?

Sounds like you feel abandoned.. I think I would... just hope you can find out more.. maybe there is a good explanation for this change....

Thank you for the IM chat last night....much appreciated your support .... Not sure how things will proceed...but for now I am off to the "Big Apple"....I suspect that all of the excitement (which includes shopping therapy in Noho, Soho, Nolita, Greenwich Village, Macey's etc) will give me time away to forget the devastation of this past week....or at least I hope it will.....

I send warm healing thoughts (emotional as well as physical)..and safe hugs.....

Take good care of you

Hey Deb-
I know you prob. won't see this while in NY but writing anyways. Smiler

I'm glad we got to talk that night and I hope it helped. I hope you get some answers that bring you to a decision that is good for your healing journey.

Shopping therapy sounds TERRIFIC as well as a good stage show!! I can't wait to find out all you did!! Smiler I'm sure Dude will want to know too once they come back.

I hope that you can or in case you don't see this until your return.... I hope you are able to stay present/mindful of your feelings, emotions... during your trip..... I just love the smell of new clothes and the feel of strange objects!! Hehehe.

Thank you for your warm and healing thoughts.... they are appreciated. Thank you too for your support that night as well. I feel a little less doom and gloom for my progression of health problems that has happened....

ttyl (talk to you latter)

Hugs

Butterfly Warrior:

I just arrived home after a wild time in the Big Apple......purchased some wonderful items.....walked and walked (from one end of Manhantan to the other--and then some).... visited all of the "touristy" sites ....whew, I am exhausted....My flight was 3 hrs late leaving New York.....It is now about 5:30....off to bed I go.....ps I will IM you later once I am rested...

Dude:

Perhaps we each know CG in different ways.....she has acknowledged her blooper with a promise to fix it....so she had promised a specific time and date starting in September, twas not a suggestion.....ps....I take a long time to heal from wounds such as these....I guess you are back from vacation?

A tired Deb
