Therapist question.
I was wondering if anyone else is seeing one in my area. If so, who are you seeing and are they good with issues we face. I am not sure what kind to look for. One that does women's issues or eating disorders (altho this is not really an eating disorder other than fear of regain) or what? Any help would be great.

I haven't seen anyone but at the St. Francis support group meeting tonight Stephanie Krulewitz a therapist from PATH was the guest speaker. She actually had RNY surgery about 6 years ago and is familiar with the issues we face. She currently does individual therapy and is looking to start a group therapy session. I don't know much about her, but it could be interesting to talk to a therapist who has gone through the same things.

Jess..
How are you feeling and how is eating coming along
I need to call Dr. R.. I have some concerns.. my stomache is COMPLETELY extended & bloated.. started last night & have been so uncomfortable & in some minor pain. I had to leave work today.. it was unbearable.. & hard as a rock.. it looks like a water balloon.. he prescribed some meds for me so trying to see if that'll relieve some of the symptoms.
Not as bad as when I left the hospital.. but pretty close.
Haven't Poo'd since Friday.. UGH... nightmare.
Hugs,
Mickey

I also am seeing Stephanie as my therapist as well. I have my 2nd session with her tonight. I really like her.. & the fact she understands "US" by having WLS herself is a plus.
She's affiliated w/St. Francis I believe.
Down side.. she's on the border of Bloomfield/Hartford.. not the best area.. near the hospital.. but easy to get to.

I fogot to add...
Kim Daniels runs a group from time to time dealing with people's issues of regain, etc.
I signed up for the first one, and only made it to one meeting, then Bob had his "issues" and I couldn't make it to others...I lost the money...
