Tracey B: Client has done the relapse exercise before and I found it interesting that her her biggest warning sign this time is that she is experiencing anger and resentments that she keeps to herself. In the past, I know she had listed in the relapse assignment previously that she avoids talking about her problems, her life is out of balance, and that she ruminates about the past. She talked a bit about her daughter’s rape and disclosed that she is seeing someone to help sort out her feelings. She still holds resentment towards her husband who left her for her best friend and could relate to Greg who was pushed out of his own home. Also, her son is in Florida, reportedly to get help for his Heroin addiction. She explained how Caron did not work for her and that she tried going 3 times/week until she had exchanged heated words with the counselor, she said that she did much better at BCC where she had a more therapeutic relationship with the counselor.
