Hi all. I just started EMDR (I've had one session so far).
Here's my therapy breakdown:
My T is starting a new group on Thursdays for CBT. I'm seriously debating this. Here are my thoughts:
My friends suggest I just do all three. They see someone who is in rough shape a lot of the time and they have seen therapy help me. Most of them are not therapy goers so they may mean well but I'm just not sure that more is necessarily beneficial.
Any and all thoughts are welcomed and appreciated.
Here's my therapy breakdown:
- Mondays- IOP graduation group, we discuss a variety of different topics, sometimes process group.
- Tuesdays- Coping skills group, a small amount of room for processing
- Every other Friday- EMDR
My T is starting a new group on Thursdays for CBT. I'm seriously debating this. Here are my thoughts:
- Do I really need a third group? At what point are you doing too much therapy?
- If I don't need a third group, which group do I not do? (I have no obligations to any group)
- CBT is something that is useful for me and learning more could be useful but will it work well with EMDR?
- Is there a point where my T will get a bit burnt out on me? Not sure he's my biggest fan in the first place. Might destroy the relationship and screw me over.
- Would it be better to work with just one T or is having two Ts better?
My friends suggest I just do all three. They see someone who is in rough shape a lot of the time and they have seen therapy help me. Most of them are not therapy goers so they may mean well but I'm just not sure that more is necessarily beneficial.
