Ahh, sometimes they surprise us. Well, we both asked for what we needed, or at least what we didn't need. Mine prefers I make a positive statement too, and it always stymies me. How do you say I need you to wrap me in a warm blanket of security? Well, I've actually been known to say that, but it's hard and he is sometimes flummoxed by it.
It's a shame that you don't have the last session any more. One and a half seems reasonable. Maybe when group starts you can go down to one. Or maybe you'll need two. :)
Will you let me know how group goes? I've been pretty convinced I can't handle it, and I'd like to know if it isn't as bad as I assume. I don't think I'd like it with my therapist though. He might be different with others than he is with me, and I wouldn't like that.
