I am so thankful for my therapist

I’m not trying to discredit anyone’s experiences with bad therapists because that must be awful. But I do want to add a bit of positivity to this subreddit for balance.

I started therapy late last year after having easily one of the worst years of my life and it’s been a god send. I got super lucky with her and while I’m still working through a lot of things every session I have with her leaves me feeling safe, cared for, and better able to handle the stuff life is throwing at me.

For those of you in the profession - thank you. You really do make a huge difference in people’s lives. I’ve thanked her personally many times, but it never feels like it’s an accurate expression of my gratitude. It always feels like there’s a million more things I want to say. So, I figured I’d deal with the overflow by expressing it here. You’re all awesome and I’m grateful for what you do.
