I am having a really rough week and I reached out to my T to see if he had any openings and would be available for an additional session. This is not something I do often and in nearly 3 years of working together have done so less than a handful of times. I understand that he didn't have an opening, I get that, what bothers me and I know I shouldn't compare but my old T that I worked with for 4 years before I moved would reach out and check on me if I asked for an extra session and he couldn't accomodate me. I feel as though it would be a simple thing to do, pick up the phone and make sure that I am not in a situation/frame of mind that is an absolute crisis. I know he is not a "crisis therapist" what ever that means but for all the claims of care and concern for my well being it is difficult to match the words to actions.
Was my old T the exception? Does anyone else have/had a T that would reach out if they couldn't accomodate an extra session? I know that this isn't a reason to end our work together I am just sad and hurting, depressed and struggling and as much as this site helps me the real world connection just a minute of his time would mean so much.
