I went 3 times. At first I liked it, but last time I didn't know what to say so now I am embarrassed and feel like I should not try again.

Counselors are trained to deal with silence. Please don't give up on counseling yet. Keep going x

@Remina Thank you 😊 I will try. I just don't want to take up her time. She seemed really busy and I felt like maybe she was expecting more from me.

You're welcome. You're not taking up her time. She is there to be a therapist and should understand that it takes time to build that therapeutic relationship. I hope she can make you feel comfortable enough to realize that.

I think that it is very courageous of you to go. Could you jot down some notes before hand? Just some things that you could possibly discuss during the visit? It would be great if you could get something positive out of  the visit.

@caringShoulder1357 Thanks :) My counselor actually suggested the same. But for now I have no scheduled visit, so I will have to reach out when I think of a good subject. 😅
