I'm sorry you are doubting your T on whether or not you are believed. But believed about what? Anyway, it doesn't really matter what the T believes, because the T functions according to what YOU believe, and goes from there

I would suggest that you tell the T NOT to hug you and that you will learn to trust sooner that way. If the T respects your expressed wishes, that will show you how much the T cares about your autonomy. If the T refuses, then yes, it is time to find another one.

Therapy is to be all about the patient. The T has nothing personally vested in the session, and is there to find where you are and to guide you to where you need to be. It's the knowing of where you need to be (along with where you say you want to be) that is why you see and pay for the expert. Take care.
