When I first started seeing my past therapist in private practice I recorded our sessions. I did this for about three years. A few months after she terminated our therapeutic relationship, I pulled out these recordings and started to listen to them. I have been using my old sessions as my own form of therapy to continue to help myself process what had happened. I am using me, my healthier self, and the person who my therapist had once believed in, had wanted to be in relationship with, and had cared for. I use these sessions as evidence that the relationship was real, to keep myself moving forward.
These conversessions continue to provide insight into who I am and what happened. They are also acting as a lifeline. This is how I am being my own therapist… and holding on.
