Everyone is so individual...so, perhaps a therapist could be cold and professional and that would discourage strong feelings in one client, but be very enticing to another client. It just depends on the person.
I honestly don't see how therapy would work (for me, anyway) if my T was "pretending" to be someone he is not. It's a real relationship, involving two real people. My T has told me that it would be too confusing to have to be different people for different clients...he is just himself.
Anyhow, having said all of that, I really am curious as to what you have in mind.
I'm sorry you are in so much pain

I have to agree with Treehouse here. Would a Therapist have to be cold, rude, unattractive, uncaring, dismissive etc in order that they try to ensure clients don't like them?
I honestly feel for you and your pain and I think once you get to a point were you dont feel just as angry anymore you will be able to take on board the rational side of the argument because at the moment it seems your finding it difficult to see another point of view except the one you have which is driven by pain and anger, not logic and reasoning.
