Therapist doesn't want me to mention my grandmother

@whatamidoinghere19 Therapist bashing is not helpful. I don't have choices right now. Unlike her predecessor, she has good intentions, so I am determined to make this work and get out of it what I can.

@blackemerald1 @somerandomguy That is extremely helpful. Thank you.

Therapists can't be "bashed", their egos are too strong.
I wish you good progress in your work....

This seems like a generalization to me. Therapists are humans. No one likes to be bashed. But some therapists are going to be more effective than others.

Talking about the past in order to illuminate the present is a type of therapy. Not every therapist does this. Is your therapist practising cbt?

I don't know.
