Has anyone seen a therapist for a personal issue (i.e. not a marriage or couples therapist)? Did you find it helpful in resolving your issue/making you feel better? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

yes. I had an ectopic pregnancy, and therapy was great for helping with the surrounding potential fertility issues. I liked her so much and found her so helpful that I also ended up resolving lots of anger towards my parents about growing up in a cult too. [ Reply | More

nope, I'm in dc. My best suggestion is not to stay if they are not helping you. It really is more about clicking with the therapist than anything else. If they just let you whine for months on end with no resolution, then they are not helping you. I was very firm in my mind that if I didn't get anywhere in 3 weeks, that I was going to try someone else. Granted, there wasn't a ton of movement in those 3 weeks, but there was enough to convince me she was good at her job. All in all it took about 9 months for everything. [ Reply | More

I've been in therapy 4 or 5 times in my life. I am not a fan. Frankly, its like paying for someone to vent to. UB is much more effective (and free!) [ Reply | More

Yes -- and she was honest with me and told me to stop therapy after I'd dealt with the issue (not in a mean way!). I went back to her when something else was going on in my life (a huge family crisis) and she was helpful then, too. [ Reply | More
