My T has never said I was being resistant but I certainly have been. It is me who refuses to discuss something, not the other way around. However, I think it is just basic courtesy to accept when anyone, including a T, shuts down a topic of conversation. Otherwise, it is overstepping boundaries, IMO. People have a right to refuse to discuss something if they don't want to.

I am confused, it must be context specific, because I have thought resistance is the client refusing to talk about something, or at least that is the way I've always run. I'm having trouble thinking of how it would work the other way, for a T to say that because of resistance, we can't talk about this. I suppose if you are in a disagreement about whether x is y or z and refuse to budge, then maybe T doesn't like banging her head against a brick wall. Sorry, just speculating here.
