I am really proud of you for seeking help when you can feel those old addictive habits trying to resurface. You're so far into your recovery, it would be such a shame for you to relapse now. I must ask, why is it you felt uncomfortable seeing a female counsellor. If you still feel uneasy, you may close your eyes. I find this often helps more nervous clients as they're able to open up more when they aren't looking directly at me. I know that I can be quite a distraction sometimes. Do you feel that I might distract you from healing.
