from a fairly recent post..... I think the choice(s) we do need to make can only ever be based on where we’re at in any given moment, and that’s just go to be good enough. Even if that happens to be an ostensible no-choice. And that a good T gets that and doesn’t try and impose a model of moral/psychological perfection on a client not even if that’s what both client and T (think they) ultimately want.
I wonder whether this may not be the point where a T gives up; if there is no desire to change coming from Client, then how can there be change?
It can happen that one's damaged worldviews are so deeply accepted, so desperately defended, that to hear a proposal of change, by relinquishing those views, sure sounds like being asked the impossible.
What does T do then?
