WHY THE HELL NOT? My T has helped me so much over the last 5 years. Why not have her be that person I envision being with me in time of stress/anxiety for calming comfort?

Any thoughts on this? I'm going to confront my T about this. She is part of my process other wise I wouldn't be seeing her.
I think the subtext here is, "Don't rely too much on me. I won't always be here, and in any case, I can't help you outside this room. You need a support network."
