| 0:00.0 | Hey, deserve listeners. It's just me today. I thought I would answer some patron emails |
| 0:04.5 | up to your patron. This email is from anonymous, highest to your patron from Minneapolis. He writes, |
| 0:10.5 | I was hoping you could share your thoughts on this. I have been in therapy on and off for about |
| 0:15.4 | 10 years. However, I have an issue where I find myself regularly switching therapists. |
| 0:21.2 | I generally work with someone for about a year or so before I start becoming dissatisfied with |
| 0:25.8 | my therapist. I often feel like I'm not being challenged enough or making any progress. |
| 0:30.8 | Now I am finding myself in the same situation where I want to switch therapists, but I'm not sure |
| 0:35.3 | if I should. On one hand, working with different people may provide me with exposure and experience |
| 0:40.5 | with many different types of modalities and techniques. On the other hand, this may just be me |
| 0:46.0 | being unwilling to confront issues with my current therapist. Any insight into regularly switching |
| 0:51.9 | therapists would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. End of email. Well, I can't know for you, |

| 1:02.1 | would ask myself if I were in your shoes. I've experienced this myself. I mean, not to that degree, |
| 1:08.5 | but I've had times in therapy myself where I feel like I'm not really being challenged enough, |
| 1:14.8 | or I feel like I'm not making any progress. It feels like I'm just coming in and we're talking |
| 1:20.4 | about the same things, and I kind of know what my therapist is going to say. For me, when I get there, |
| 1:27.7 | I'm like, well, there's a lot that I'm avoiding. There's a lot that I could be talking about in |
| 1:35.7 | therapy that I don't naturally go to when I sit down on the couch, but if I really thought about it, |
| 1:42.2 | I mean, there's some deeper, perhaps more vulnerable thing. So I don't know, |
| 1:47.7 | highest to your patron, but if you are on the avoidant side of the spectrum attachment-wise, |
| 1:53.1 | then in all likelihood, this is a worthy exploration for you. What vulnerable, embarrassing, |
| 2:01.6 | deeper issue are you avoiding, and when you get to the point where it would be natural to start |
