Schema Therapy also has a psychodynamic approach= object relations/attachment ect. and works with the Tīs and clients (counter)-tranference. They just phrased it as the T being aware of their own schemas as well as the clients.
Maybe she isnīt a "fullblown" Schema Therapist?
I am curious as to why you can be to intelligent to do this sort of work?
Sounds like something is up with the T that may not be related to you? Who knows.
Sorry this happend to you. I know from personal experience what itīs like, having to pay (!!??), to be abandoned and treated the way you were in childhood, all over again.
