Day 37, 27Apr10

I have decided not to visit my therapist this week. I have seen her twice since Alicia's death as well as I have seen 1 person at CorStone. I feel as if I am doing pretty well. I have my creative outlets, eg Facebook and blogging. I have my work to focus on most of the day. I have also tapped into an online grief community such as TCF as well as made new friends who had a similar experience. I will switch to every other week with her.

Jasmine has met with her therapist three times now. She had previously meet with 2 separate people at CorStone and a referral. She did not connect with the therapists at CorStone but she felt better with the referral. But the referral is just too far 90 minutes one way. Now, she wants to stop therapy. She relays she does not feel connected. I am wondering if they are working on something she does not want to deal with emotionally. We'll have to sort this out. She does have her creative outlets which include journaling and Facebooking.

Cathie on the other hand had partially connected with a referral. She had previously not seen someone individually. But she has not made a follow up appointment and does not plan to do so. She may not be ready yet but I would like to make sure when she is ready, she already has a connection.
