When I started seeing her, I told her that I'd been frustrated with my previous therapy experience. It had started feeling like a rather expensive chat over coffee. I wanted to be pushed, so I could make progress and get somewhere. She's done just that.

Today was pretty amazing. She's very good at figuring out what's going on inside my head... both the things I'm aware of and those I'm not. She gave me some stuff to work on, to help with the constant, exhausting up-down cycle of depression anxiety. It's stuff that will work. I know this because it's something I already do, when things get bad enough that I remember.

She's into non-Western ways of thinking and healing. That was a surprise. Nothing in her office or demeanor gave me clues that she might be conversant in chakras, journeying, energy transfer, or totems. We had a very interesting discussion about totems. This is wonderful news to me. I really need to get back into journeying. It's great to know that when I come to some new understanding or way of seeing through a journey, my therapist will know what I'm talking about.

I'm suddenly very tired, but in a good way. I think that more happened during that discussion than I'm aware.

Oh, oh, oh . . . be very careful. With my Christian shroud in place, the whole idea of that really scares me. I'm clueless about the rest, but I've seen the other in a bad way. Oh, please do be careful.

Which part concerns you?

I know that I'm always much more grounded and much more likely to take things in stride when I'm journeying regularly (and when I actually listen to my guides!)...

Know that I'm always here to offer what help/guidance or interpretative skills I possess to the cause...

That you have a therapist who can actually get in your head. Of the ones I've seen, only one has been able to get past my defenses at all, so you're lucky. :)
