Dear Dr. Ando, I don't know if this is quite your area of expertise but I thought you might have some insight. Two years ago this Christmas, I broke up with my very abusive ex-boyfriend. Along with being abusive he lied constantly and his infidelity knew no bounds. Since then I have only dated casually and have felt great. I know I haven't quite dealt with what happened but it wasn't affecting my relationships until now. A few months ago I started seeing someone new. He's very sweet and patient. He knows what I went through and wants to be there for me. The problem I am running into now is that all of the paranoia and insecurities I felt with my ex are creeping in. He has given me no real reasons to respond to him in such a way but my mind now seems to go to the worst places. I was never insecure before my ex. I was always quite secure in my relationships. I know counseling is a good idea so my question is what sort of counselor should I look for? (A psychologist, psychoanalyst, therapist, etc...) Thank you for taking the time to read. ~Clueless About Counseling
