“It took me nine years to find a therapist who heard me on day one. Nine years. Four therapists. The one I have now is a fifty-eight-year-old woman with a gray braid, and in the first session she said, tell me what you know is true about yourself that no one has agreed with yet. I cried in her office for forty of the fifty minutes. That was the first time I had said the true sentence and had it stay in the room.”
