I waited more than seven months

Published Thursday, April 11, 2019

I waited more than seven months to be seen by a therapist. I had to call every week to see if anyone had cancelled. I now have a therapist , but I only see her once a month. When I started having panic attacks, I asked if I could see her more often, but she said her schedule just wouldn’t allow it. So now here I am with a therapist who understands me and has helped me grow, but I can only see her once a month.
