I do not see anyone before me but they are sitting in the small waiting room right outside the door and I have to walk past them. There has been many times I have come out distraught and crying and it really embarrasses me when they look at me go by.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
