I was wondering how many people experience their theripst acting as a life coach?

Most of yesterday was spent talking about issue at work even though last week I totaly paniced and told her I need to do HRT ETC. I asked her about this morning and I knew the answer - I need to be well rounded and calm when ever I make a decision about transistion. I see her point as most of this week I have been relaxed and do not think I would even start any transistion.

It is such a pitty I feel tension creaping in again this morning. I hate days like today.

A good therapist helps you to find your own answers from a good, balanced, strong place.  Such answers are the ones you can ultimately live with.

There's a reason one can't walk in, say, "I want SRS," and walk out with a surgery date.  One needs to spend a fair amount of time learning - learning who he or she is, learning what he/she truly wants, learning the costs, and learning how to get there.  Answers rarely appear overnight.  They rarely appear written large across the sky.  Most often, they arrive with that still, quiet voice that speaks somewhere within us.

Dia dhuit, Alice.

Alice,
Sounds like you have a great therapist.  I would have been so disappointed if she had just come right out and let you have your way.  And I am encouraged that she thinks it's your decision.

Nope, I just tell my therapist(s) what's going in my life and that's it, she just nods. That takes about 15 mins every four months.
