Maybe I approached it poorly, but it leaves me feeling less confident that it's something he can work with me on.

I'm wondering if maybe I can set up an appt. with another T at his office that is familiar with me...like, the last co-T that we had in group. She is awesome, and it might be helpful. That's something I may consider.
Meeting with another T was exactly what I was going to suggest. Perhaps even a session with your T and consult T, although I doubt your T would really want to be involved with that. I know that it is none of my business and not my place, but it seems that your T has a very hard time owning up to his own issues and mistakes. Even if he doesn't agree with you, he should be able to hear your view on things.
Thanks for this!
