yes I suppose this is the thing to do, if she is willing. When she cut off the topic, I said, please let me continue, and I kept going. When she cut it off again, I said, please, allow me to continue; I have to say this. And I did say what I had to say. If I had simply stopped, I was not sure I would have been able to get back to those thoughts again another day.

What i don't understand is why, if "resistance is expected" (which only seems reasonable), it seemed to be such a problem. Transference is expected and it's ****** unpleasant for the client; but it is a tool to work with. If resistance is expected, why wouldn't it be a tool, and not simply shunned. It seems to me that the same subject can be brought up any number of times.
