If your gf did this for you would you appreciate it? Obviously it worked out for OP but within my experience men tend to reject therapy
I bought my boyfriend 8 sessions of therapy for his birthday. He said it’s one of the best gifts he’s gotten.

If I was considering therapy I think it would be good

If I talked with her about how I wanted to start therapy, yes, if it’s out of the blue I can’t think of a more insulting gift

As someone who has been in and out of therapy. I would honestly reconsider my relationship with her if she did this, since I have had only bad experiences going

this sounds similar to if a guy were to buy his gf personal training sessions. it can be fine in certain situations but it usually look like the partner is subtly telling the other that there is something wrong with them and probably wont be received well

Not if it’s something I never mentioned wanting, I’d be very offended

I also would say therapy only “works” if the patient is fully invested themselves, getting it for them isnt gonna do that if they aren’t already…
