Who was the best therapist you ever had?

Who was the best therapist you ever had? I had a handful growing up. Some private, some from the school I was at. All were older and the experience did not do much for me. But my last therapist was amazing. Firstly, she worked at a local hospital and I had therapy as an outpatient. This unique environment, with places we utilized like a Cafe and Coffee Shop, was really fun and different. But what was also a massive help was that she was near my age. All other therapists have been older. And no offense, but it's hard to relate to that. Especially growing up. (it never helped that any video they had me watch was made in the 80s.) But this therapist was late 20s, just graduated, and very friendly and helpful. This led to all sessions feeling more like an hour of talking and catching up than therapy. Unfortunately it only lasted a few months and I haven't gone back to therapy since. But looking back, it will be hard to top that and I was really as happy as I have ever been during and shortly after that experience. A good therapy session can really snowball into your normal life.
