Backseatdriver,
He uses different approaches, including psychodynamic.
And you know, he said the exact same thing you did, that maybe i need someone who wouldn't be as pushy as he is, since i am not ready for this right now.
But the thing is, i've been through his being very cold and direct and pushy, i've been in the "thick" of therapy already, so i believe i AM ready for another round if it needs to be this way. But he says that i am not ready.
And he just brought up a whole bunch of issues, which he says, he's seen all along, and he just dumped them on me, and did not attempt to kind of lead through them, just sat there, and i didn't know what to do, except admitting to them. It's like he just gave me an agenda to look at with my next therapist, but not with him.
I cannot believe i am loosing this relationship. I feel he is undoing what has been accomplished. How can i trust anyone, if this beautiful relationship ends this way. I thought this man will be my guide in this life for many more years. He is an extremely intelligent, experienced, wise and good man. I thought he cared about me and was interested in supporting me. This is crazy.
