No, and my guess is he wouldn't say that to any client. Big words for a therapist and lots of risks in saying it. He has said many times that he cares about me. I also said I care about him (only after he said it to me a couple of times, for personal security reasons). If he said he loved me, I would say I love him too. Well, after recovering from the shock and making sure he's still himself, that is.

I read this online article on the subject, years ago. It's by a therapist talking about why she wouldn't use the L word with a client. I think she makes some great points, with intelligence and sensitivity. In case anyone wants to read:
