It's especially scary with T because when we talk about boundaries, her thing is, "I can give you a referral; if you don't like my policies there are other therapists." We've been working together for seven months. I know she's just giving me options, which is my right as the client...it just feels like she's threatening me with abandonment whenever she says that. I've told her I feel this way; she says it less now, but still sometimes, and it brings up A LOT of fear in me.
