1. I ALWAYS hate changing ts. I am the original Klingon.
2. I would definitely prefer psychodynamic to CBT.
3. I still had to consciously decide to say yes to my t, cuz i was disagreeing with him on evetyghing, automatically. But i finally realized it was really just a habit i learned from my mother, who is always right and cannot be told anything and will literally change sides in an argument just to disagree with me (when i wanted to get married, she said no. When i said i didnt want to get married after all, she said i had to. Wtf??). So i asked my t to stop and get my attention before he said something, so that i couldnt automatically disagree. So he would say something like, "this is just off the top of my head but..." and i would find that so sweet and endearing that i would be disarmed and actually LISTEN to him. So now we dialogue much better, altho i still catch myself being negative at him. Good luck whatever you decide.
