I am disappointed in something that my therapist did (or rather, didn't do). I guess on the grand scheme of Disappointing Things People Do, it scores really low. But it's not like the other kinds of disappointments I have felt with her. Like, sometimes I wish she wasn't so quick to dismiss my feelings--to be invalidating. But when she's done this, the hurt I feel is real small and I can resolve it all on my own. This time, I just don't know what to tell myself to make me forget.
I suspect people will tell me to talk to her about it. But what if I'm making a mountain out of a molehill? What if I end up generating a bigger disappointment? What if I embarrass myself by letting her know I really care about her caring? I would hate to make things worse.
