T and I recently discussed how my transference feelings will be dealt with in a gradual gentle way. I'm very regressed in the transference. Then she escalated her urging that my inner child merge with my adult self. This has been an ongoing issue where I have this little alter who hangs back and won't recognize me as her provider. T says over and over how I can provide all my child needs, such as protection, food, caring, love, etc. I hang back because I know the child is attached to T, not me.
I've gotten to the place of despair about the haranguing from T. Now I just want to go in the session and say how I've gotten my inner child to accept me 100% and all like T wants.
This will terminate therapy, as there is nothing else left to do. I've gotten myself into an omnipotent denial attitude to deal with this so it won't hurt too much to leave. Seems there's no use trying to work on transference issues with someone so determined to shove them back into me.
I realize this is pretty complex, but I would still appreciate any comments you all would like to say about it.
