I didn't use the DB counseling because it was between that and phone counseling with Jim Conway. I chose Jim because I could go by the minute rather than invest more than I had at a time. I talked to Jim twice.
I then found my local mentor/counselor and didn't feel the need...cause she's awesome! In the beginning I met with her ever opther week. Then after I lost my jjob every three weeks to a month. Then as unemployment ran out every 6 weeks. By that time I was saving cash as a budgetary way of making sure I had money for her when I needed to go--I had something like three 30 minute quick session saved at a time. I didn't schedule the times between...that was just about how often I felt the need.
Had I not found her...I would have continued talking to Jim or a DB coach. I wanted someone who could give me answers rather than nod and let me talk for 45 minutes...I can do that with anyone.
