Thanks for your comments about my T relationship, Rainbow.

He knows me well enough to know I won't take it the wrong way. I like that he trusts me to respond appropriately.

LOL, we actually have talked about that before, but not a book about therapy. But that has fallen by the wayside.

I like that you take that message from what I wrote. I think there are a lot of books out there about "the therapy experience" and some of them may contain that very message. Rainbow, there are many clients and Ts who believe that T relationships are not just about transference. Join us!
