Orchid,
Even though I don't like the new boundries my T is giving me, I think he is doing what is best for me. My T is not emotionless, he has been there for me and has given me a lot of validation. But now that he knows how much he means to me, he is doing what is best for me, maybe not what either of us truely wants if there were no ethics. But even though it hurts, he is in a way helping me and trying to make me more independent of him.
Besides I thought in pyscodynamic therapy, the therpist is a blank slate, revealing nothing. So to me that would seem so cold, I think if I started out in that kind of therapy, I would have have quit real fast.
My T keeps me grounded , keeps me thinking in a more positive way, encourages me to suceed, but he doesn't want to be that rock I need, he wants me to stand on my own. He doesn't want therapy to be about him. I don't know what I am trying to say, but I think I do have a good T and I think he has helped me so much. I know he and I will work through this "problem", because we have before, and I have become more strong because of it.
