The last thing to consider in terms of being seen is you can't absolutely work with a therapist. Are you looking for feedback, or do you just want a vent oftenti i find that it's a safe bet to assume it's just venting and if they want advice, they will ask for it. So i tend to default to support, is opposed to guidance. A question, what if there are conditions or boundaries that impact the connection? For example, someone says they aren't ready for love, but they want to be treated as though they are loved. That sounds to me like that needs to be explored more or resolved in some way.
