I Want To Fire My Therapist

[Nighthawk]

I hate DBT therapy athough have stuck with it and my T for over T years. I am now at a point were just listning to the skills piss me off to a point of no return. I tried to interview a new therapist and was turned down because I have an existing T. Not sure were to turn. Been in exstreme distress. Whant to tell my existing T I am done but not sure I am in a place I can be in without a T.

Did you explain to the T you interviewed that while yes you do have a current T, you are looking to replace that T. You don't want to keep both indefinitely? I overlapped for about 2 months while I adjusted to my new T and then I saw a friend of my current T while my T was out for surgery. Normally if they understand its temporary they are accepting.

Yes I did explain this.

See if you can interview a different new T. Keep trying to find someone else.

I understand, it is scary and hard to open up each time. Maybe explain your situation before your intake session so that you know up front that they will work with you on phasing out your old T?
