There's a certain kind of emotional intimacy in the therapeutic relationship. I think it depends on whether one is craving that kind of intimacy and slips into it easily, or is afraid of it, doesn't trust it and therefore fights it. In my case, I was dragged kicking and screaming into it by a very smart T. So ... yeah, it was a bit adversarial at first, but I wasn't really conscious of it. I didn't KNOW I had this giant fear of intimacy.
