“Just to let you know that I had an MRI today. The appointment came through shortly after our last session. The work we did helped a lot. I wasn’t at all anxious running up to the scan today and while there was some anxiety during the scan itself I was able to manage it much better and to treat it as an opportunity to learn about my anxiety. And you have given me something of lasting value which goes beyond the immediate issue of the phobia that we set out to work on. Plus I learnt that I can use guided meditation to good effect, which I didn’t really believe before. And that I can have in mind a safe place, which I didn’t have before and for which I am very grateful.”
