Voluntary therapy
Sep. 21st, 2009 11:18 pmToday I had a therapy session, which i requested via my GP with psychologist C. O'Keefe about dealing with an ongoing, troublesome surfeit of unwonted images and thoughts of a distressing nature (torture, animal experimentation etc etc). Its basically an attempt to get total control over my imagination. This will be a continuation of, as well as an alternative approach to the 4 sessions I had with psychologist Adrian Duffy at St Leonards last year. (which evidently had limited sucess).
So far a lot of descriptive data was gathered with background colouring from my recent past and current situation. She had already got a potted history for further back and took a brief tour to check details. I also had to give 1 - 10 ratings on various factors involved.
I opted to return in a fortnight rather than next week as I want to try and meet some personal targets first.
As well as this i want to try meditation at e.g. one of the Buddhist centres in London.
