Dear T,

Thank you for answering my questions. It makes me feel good to know that we like some of the same movies and singers, at least the old ones! I'm sorry we both miss our mothers, too. You've had a lot of losses in your life; I know that's why you specialize in treatment of loss and grief.

I feel close to you and I hope that I can keep it normal in my mind! I wanted to discuss erotic transference with you but maybe it's best just to let therapy play out the way it has been and not focus on labels. We both know my issues, and you're so sure that EMDR is the answer for me; you're like a little kid with a toy, but seriously, I trust you that it works for your other clients and that it will work for me too.

I'm suffering from my usual post-therapy blues but it's not SO bad yet. I will probably email you later with the answer to the question you asked me.
