Obviously everyone is different and responds differently to things. But there are sooo many different methods therapists use that are out there. What do you feel has helped you most personally?
For me- I’ve done the SFBT (solution focused brief) and I hated it. It felt invalidating and rushed. I did I believe it was person centered CBT? It was, better than the the other. But I felt completely directionless and just a mess and like I’m never going to get anywhere. A therapist attempted EMDR. It, umm lol, didn’t go too well. However, I liked it in the sense that I felt like something was actually happening and that maybe I’d get somewhere and have a direction.
The therapist I’ll be starting soon mentioned possibly doing EMDR but long into the future and that before that we would focus on building tools and getting nice and stable with IFS (internal family systems). She laid out stages we would move through, so I know going in I have a direction to work towards. Which I really really like.
What worked (or didn’t) for you?
