Try group therapy at a hospital. You just need a referral from a GP.

Jung claimed it is a spiritual experience. Going in and sharing yourself with others.

Hi @Alec_29

I get that you prefer humour and a light self deprecation as part of it.

There are so many subtleties to getting along with others ,, maybe the psych cant distinguish the parts of you that are socialised with that humour and the parts of you that are deeply and intensely anxious.  It sounds as if she isnt a good fit for you.

Definitely stay with what works and look around for a better fit for your MH plan.  You are not obliged 'to spend" your 10 sessions on the one person. Your GP can issue another plan for another practitioner.

Take care
