((((((granite))))))

Do what YOU think is right. I don't want you to think I (or anyone else) am pushing you into seeing a new T.

Tay, I don't think anyone can MAKE someone think they're horrible. It comes from within. I'm sorry about my poor choice of words. You say to base it on facts. You're right, but feelings are important too. If I felt terrified and unsafe with a T for a year, I wouldn't want to be with that T. If I couldn't talk and people tried to make me talk, I would remain silent. That happened to me as a child. They tried to bribe me with money or plead with me to talk. It didn't work.

The T didn't want granite to feel horrible about herself. It just doesn't sound like her methods did anything to build up her self-esteem or enable her to feel safe enough to talk to her in session.
