Thank you for clicking on this.
I'm just getting started with a new therapist and have had some scheduling difficulties which have pushed back my appointments. I do however, have a 'Health Coach' at the VA in the "Integrative Health" department. As it happens, I have seen her twice now since I last saw my therapist. The problem is that I thought that I could open up to this health Coach because there are some things that I wanted to discuss, but all she keeps saying to me is "how wonderfully good I seem to be doing" in her eyes. I just don't have the heart to tell her things! I really like this person, but I feel somewhat pressured as she told me once that I was her "inspiration" which I wasn't sure really how to take that.
Anyone have any advice on how I can better talk and open up to my Health Coach at the VA? And also my therapist? Also any type of feedback or information would be appreciated.
Thank you!
