I wonder, Sunflower, how much information you really have about Dream's relationship with her therapist, just how many posts of Dream's you have actually read over the last 6 months to understand precisely why and what her therapist is showing her, teaching her and giving to her. I think when we read other people's stories and struggles it is up to us to keep our own ethics in check and suspend judgement knowing full well that we could not possibly have all of the information needed to reach such conclusions.

And above all, that in the end, it is our job to keep the focus on ourselves and our own struggles, without pointing out what we may believe someone else has not seen yet or inferences about protesting too much. How much do you really know about what Dream has seen yet?

Dream- I do hope you will take your responses with a grain of salt and understand that in a public forum like this people may respond out of reflex and ingnorance. Not knowing or understanding a relationship and then giving advice. Relationships, especially theraputic ones, are more complex than that and I hope you understand that not everyone takes that truth into account when responding. They like to show you that they know better.
Dream~ My T. and I give a kiss on the cheek after every session. sometimes after a hard session I can tell she hugs me a tiny bit harder. It always makes me feel better. I see NOTHING wrong at all with your T giving you a kiss. One time we were chatting and I she asked if I was mad at her and I repsonded with " are you serious? How could I be mad ar you I love you" she looked at me and said she loved me too. All in chat nothing else. Hug your T, except her kiss and feel good.
Thanks for this!
