broke, I feel you and I are on the same timeline alot of the time. I've also been feeling like I need to take a break from my IC b/c I'm just not getting what I need. I think I've kept going b/c I find value in someone just listening to me, gaining insight and working out the thoughts in my head out loud. But I need something more.

I looked into Solution Focused Therapy about 1.5 ago after I started realizing that I need actionable items, goals and a timeframe while someone holds me accountable. I think thats what myIC tries to be as she is also a life/money management coach but I don't know. She also happens to be me and H's MC. So I think that's another reason I keep going - b/c she's met him and can weigh in on things b/c of that.

DB Coaching is a bit pricey but I think overall, it is worth it and nice to have that resource out there. I'm in a tough financial sitch but I think it's super valuable so I try to book every other week or so. It's difficult to monitor the results of it when in NC but still very insightful.
