Aaa, Mouse you meant that the new T not the previous one should go back to school - sorry I misunderstood this... Thanks Lauliza for the clarification

In this case I guess I wasn't very clear. My current T of course links the past to the presence as we work on the childhood trauma it wouldn't be possible to ignore the past... But my current T doesn't use the word "transference" so often as it isn't necessarily true that if I am angry with my T, it means that I am just angry with her because 20 years ago someone did something and that's why I am angry now... It is still possible that my T could simply screw up
