Hi, thanks for replying.Well, normally I'd agree with you, but again, my situation is complex in a myriad of ways and this is one of them.
I live in the smallest state in the US (literally), and my former T and current T are situated in a very tiny town. My former T recommended my current T to me, saying that they were "friends." I don't know how true that is (even if they are, my current T wouldn't let on), but I do know they at least know each other in professional capacities, and perhaps even personally as well. Given that situation I don't feel that my current T can be truly objective about this situation. I've tried discussing it with her before, but she seems to defend my former T in some ways and this made me uncomfortable and not able to trust her on this topic. I'd be afraid that whatever advice (if any) she gave me would be biased, and, well, I just plain don't trust her on this one topic.
So, yeah....
Thanks for the suggestion anyway. :-)

> Well I think this will sound like a broken record but the usual answer is, talk to the current T about your feelings about the old T. And it truly does work. I didn't believe it until I tried it, but it sure did work for me. Good luck, I know it's hard.
