[QUOTE=whitelion65;6424229
If you get a therapist you connect with, and trust, stick with them.
If you feel the one you’re seeing isn’t right, tell them, and ask them to refer you on. They won’t mind, should be used to it.[/QUOTE]

came to say this.

a few years ago I spoke with a phone counselor, 2 or maybe 3 psychologists and finally found a psychiatrist that I 'clicked' with. The psychiatrist changed my meds and we had a handful of sessions, I liked her approach to quickly cut through the garbage and get to the point.

Now I have access to a counselling service through work. First guy was great, easy to speak to and I chatted to him pretty often. Sometimes just a 2 minute 'everything is good' and other times it was an hour discussion.

He has since moved on and I didn't click at all with his replacement so I have found another counselor but she is on a different work site to me so I only see her when it is 'needed' and the same unhelpful thoughts have been floating in my head for longer than they should.
