Some therapists appear to have savior complexes. They NEED to keep their clients under their illusory superior wings to save the day. They can get highly petulant when a client fails to play the game with them.

I'm glad that you feel stronger than ever. It seems like a lovely paradox. My therapy, equally paradoxically, taught me to no longer believe in gurus.

Wishing you gifts and silver linings.
