I think part of the problem for me is I've had so many different therapists. Can you imagine starting over again with a dozen people? Ugh! Sooo much retelling...

I wish EMDR had worked for me. It might have, if I'd had a competent therapist. I should have realized it was a red flag when she just handed me a book about it and then jumped right in.

I think a life coach is a really good idea. Most therapists want to help, but are limited in helping you move forward because they can't really suggest things.
