Bent -
I think you are absolutely right. When I first worked with my T (back in 1983), I quit several times everytime she asked about "our" relationship ... questions like "Is that how you feel here sometimes?" or the like, sent me running fast. I eventually quit. Now, YEARS later, I returned to therapy (same T in fact) and know I have the strength and courage to talk about my feelings with her. AND it is so HARD and so embarassing, but it is helpful. I am so happy she is still practicing (we were both pretty young back then) and I am finally able to work through this relationship. I am getting so much more out of therapy now that I can admit to having feelings about my T. And those sessions are sometimes the most productive. And I still withhold the depth of those feelings, but I'm surprising myself with what comes out of my mouth. My T couldn't be anymore helpful with this.
