I've finally decided to leave my IC after admitting that I've been paying for a decent, gentle, validating listener who has offered me no advice, no challenges, no tools/skills, no new approaches.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has piqued my interest.

I'd appreciate hearing from any who have experienced it. Advice, how to select/what to ask, what to expect, success, etc.
Thanks.
