Childers Counseling Service

She listens to me. She is willing to move along the lateral thought paths I describe. I attempt to do drill-down into a particular subtopic, and she offers me resources I can explore deeper, or confesses she doesn't know. I am able to give voice to the judgemental thoughts within me, and we do not argue that reality is actually the opposite of my lived experience. She does not insist my thoughts must be in line with the image she has for me, and therefore I do not come up with additional evidence for my "misaligned" belief. Actually, she doesn't attempt to mould me to her desire at all. I've done this 30 times before, and at every point before this, I was looked down upon for the very things that I thought were my strengths. I accepted this was going to happen, and all of my plans for this therapist were based on my prior therapy abuse. She doesn't do that. I'm confused. This is my only 5 star review for a therapist.

Martha is a great listener. She brings wisdom, kindness, and professional expertise to each counseling session. I refer to her often.
