I am sorry you are going though this. I called my insurance company and they helped call/locate therapists who would be free because It was taking so long as you said--- and then they got back to me with this information. (And by this I mean I complained to the supervisor at the insurance company who reached out to the company/behavioral health people that handle all the therapists, a different section of my particular health insurance). Anyway, so when they could not find anyone appropriate for me since everyone appropriate was busy they said because of this they would approve going out of network. Don't know if this helps but it may be worth calling/complaining/speaking up to the insurance company. And say what you are saying here and ask for help. I also said the behavior health people need to do better job of updating therapists list if therapists are not taking new clients. Like you said really time consuming.

Hello. Thanks for this AMA. Is this "rehearsing" anything like what elite athletes do, visualizing and feeling a ski course (for instance, or any other activity) many times before they do it IRL to program their minds, and go through the feelings/thoughts/actions mentally, create an imaginal act so to speak (to borrow from Neville Goddard). Or is it like re-programming ourselves into a new set of feelings and reactions (aka Joe Dispenza as well) by imagining a different (more positive feeling) rehearsing --- or I imagine other type of CBT may do that (I am not sure)-- when you say "imagine it's already happened" is seems up there with these kinds of teachings. Thanks for the learnings.

this was the best AmA to read the intro to.
