I think I need to see a counsellor or therapist. I have weird procrastination and avoidance issues, I know it's all irrational but knowing that doesn't stop me.
I had a few therapy sessions a couple of years ago, with a 'person centred' therapist. She was very nice, but even though I was being totally honest with her I just felt like I was making excuses for my behaviour and she was sympathising - it wasn't helpful.
I now live in a new place and I can see there are lots of counsellors around to choose from but I don't know what accreditations etc to look out for. Any advice on what qualifications are worthwhile would be appreciated.
Also, my budget seems to limit me to a junior therapist but I don't want it to feel like I'm just chatting to a stranger/friend, I'd rather pay more for someone experienced who might really help - would going to a really good therapist 1x a fortnight or 1x a month be better than seeing someone less experienced weekly?
Thanks!
