Ugh, I agree, that's no good. Same thing happening w my GirlChild. No healing, just re-living the trauma over and over again. I had a good one, really helped me. I don't need her any more. She gave me coping strategies. Put herself out of a job, lol. I just have joy now when I think of my late DH. But it's been 20 years and I am married again... it didn't take that long ... but two years? Yeah. That was still painful. It takes time.I had a bad experience with one years ago. He was way flirting. I finally walked out of a group session and he came running after me. Telling me I shouldn't stay with my husband.. at the time. Then went on telling me why. Never offered to helps us together. A year later he calls me. Starts to talk, then says, never mind, I don't know why I called. Anyway, yes, I believe a good one can help to a point. I've taken a child for some help. I have that daughter I've spoken of that is having problems. She keeps going. She is only worse after years of going. The same thing keeps being brought up and brings back bad feelings. Over and over.
