So maybe what you're asking - is she good enough? Yeah, it sounds like it to me. Esp since she was so open and truthful and descriptive about the ipod incident. AND she remembered it - a lot of my T's have said, you shoulda brought it up THEN, I don't REMEMBER!

Yes yes yes yes - I must remember - she's not my mother. Projection is powerful. My mother was extremely judgmental and a big disciplinarian. Anger was her only emotion.
Is my T good enough? She's great. I really really need to get back to trusting her 100%. She had asked me if all the trust we had built up together could not withstand the withdrawal that had taken place. Like a bank account still having a large deposit is not emptied by that withdrawal. That's the image I need to also put in my brain.
