I'm so glad you followed through. You were very brave!
And yes, the extreme is normal. When you let this stuff out, the old feelings of NEEDING SOMEONE to help you/save you/comfort you, come out too. And the person saying they will do this for you is your therapist. So OF COURSE you want/need to see her more.
It is tough, because it does get expensive. There are ways to have more sessions approved by the insurance company, but your therapist has to go to bat for you. And it doesn't always work.
In the meantime, I think writing down what you would want to say is one way to feel her presence and support. And keep posting here. It really does help.
