I left therapy tonight thinking about how all relationships are reciprocal, even the therapeutic relationship. And I know that we are the clients/patients and the focus should be on us, our needs, and our healing. But I was wondering what does T get from this relationship? I mean, he must feel drained sometimes because I do. My dissociation isn't easy to manage and I told him today that I never know who is going to show up for therapy. I think I am going to bring this up next session but what do you think your T gets from the relationship (besides a headache now and again)?
