Hey /adv/,
I need some help deciding if I should change psychologist or if I'm just expecting too much from therapy?
A little backstory; abused by father as a child, including sexual and physical abuse. As an adult now, the police actually have enough evidence to charge and try my father for the crimes. I am not handling the stress of up coming court dates, outcomes, etc.
Last visit to my psyche was basically her telling me I am emotional and dramatic; breathing exercises and that I need to control my anger if I'm going to be a good witness.
I don't feel any of this was helpful at all; isn't it expected I would be emotional at this time and shouldn't she be helping me understand and deal with my anger?
Am I expecting too much?
I just feel there is horrible fears and anger inside me and I can't live forever with it- however my psych has said we don't need to talk about such things as they are in the past?
