Sunrise,

I think, as you typically seem to do in your therapya, will use your resources and search for as much factual info you can find and then when you are ready you will find a way of raising this issue with your T. If he did lie, I think at this point your therapeutic relationship has the necessary base from which to work through this issue. IDK, maybe this tissue has surfaced so that you can have a chance to work through standing up for yourself, practicing confronting deeper issues instead of avoiding them. I think your T relationship is somewhat unique. The closeness and 2-way sharing that has been so healing for you, likely makes boundaries less clear and your T maybe a bit more vulerable to....I guess the official term would be counter-transerence. IDK in my own therapy as I progress and see my T on more equal- collaborative level I can see where the interactions can become more complex. I think you T doesn't see you as just a client. You have interacted with him in several professional health roles which I think each add a level of complexity. Your T relationship at this point is more than a unidirectional client-therapist relationship. I think you two will have to work through this uncharted path. I also think you've layed the groundwork to make it a healing adventure.
Thanks for this!
