Whilst I agree that it is a therapists job to create relationships with clients, some therapies are more favourable of this than others and the same can be said for some therapists regardless of which theory they practise.
Some therapists cringe at the idea of a relationship with one of their clients. Like my first t, but the other two I have seen were very focused on the relationship and it has been the most healing part of therapy for me. So I guess it is important to check with your t to see how important it is for them too. I don't believe that a t or any person for that matter could fake a relationship just because they were getting paid. I couldn't anyway and it is my experience that most t's are genuine.
