Well we met on Friday. He brought up the subject of my email and we talking briefly about clients crying in his office. His voice was very quiet at one point and he repeated the words I said I needed to hear, "I understand your need for me to say, 'It's ok to cry. You're safe in here. You're safe with me.' He then continued on to say that "You also need to know that I'm not going to hurt you, I'm not going to punish you."
Wow, was I primed for tears, I could really feel myself letting go. But damnit!! The man doesn't know when to stop talking!! And I've called him on this fact before. He babbled on and on, I don't remember what about....All I know is it shut down my emotions, and I left feeling frustrated as usual.
I did tell him before I left that he needs to watch my body language more carefully, to stop talking occasionally. He said in the future if he doesn't pick up on the fact I'm about to start bawling, to just give him some sort of hand signal and he'll shut up. We'll see....I wanted to throw something at him I was so frustrated
