Hi Karen
I am curious, is his wife pretty?
you know what....i don't know about that name thing, if you always know someone by the first name then whatever, if it changes halfway through well thats a bit weird. so i would say this is just my issue. so ignore me and my anal issues :)
i honestly don't think there is a problem between you and your therapist. as i said before you guys sound like you have a great relationship. and sometimes boundries have to be bvroken to make progress (did i just say that? :) i always speak so pro-boundry) but seriously, that is how i made progress with mine a few years ago. he sounds like yours. what ever works. i think it is a relationship that is great to have and i wouldn't worry about it, it is natural for ANYONE to have more favored feelings to some. he is not perfect, and some therapists hate their patients, i asked my doc about this- eventually they usually pass them on. the one who are favored usually know it, and i don't think that is a boundry violation, it is just a better 'connection' (btw, i am not saying they care any less for other patients)
so the point i was trying to make is if it is working, GREAT! don't try to change it. i think it is awsome you have made such progress!
out of curiousity, how long has he been practicing, this isn't a question about competency, rather an age thing. i have never come accross a therapist younger than...maybe 30. so in my mind i have always thought of them as older. anyone know how young can you start practicing?
