RAP, I agree that you need things said to you very clearly, but not sarcastically nor condescendingly. The T did not keep herself distanced like a good psychologist knows how to do. Her becoming "Frustrated" is not your fault, but hers. She took things too personally, again making it all about her.

What should it matter that you are where you are on your path? Isn't a therapist's job to meet you where you are, and even SIT DOWN with you until you are ready to move on? A good psychologist would know how to do that, and be comfortable doing so. The journey isn't supposed to be about the T and where they WANT to put you, or get you to go. Learning how to make the journey is a big part of it, too.

She needs her own counsel. If she had been honest with her own counselor, she would be performing self-care. YOUR job is not to take care of the T.
