I can state: I do not tell my clients things just to pacify them. That's not helpful to them or our relationship.

However, on the flip side, I feel like my therapist says things just to pacify me. That she doesn't really believe what she herself is telling me. Like when she says I am worth something, or lovable, or that things I say really ARE ok and understandable. I feel she just says those things because as my therapist she "has to".
