Yeah, because I had heavy transference with my previous t, and I have it in my encounters with general others (I react to certain stuff in people's mannerisms, behaviors, their way of talking to me, etc.) and the working through of it was oh so cathartic and gratifying....therefore I look forward to having that again with new t....

Yeah, I think I'll go with just letting her be herself and taking it from there.

As to why I left my previous t....I have posted a bit here and there...but not quite in the mood of launching into a full-fledged explanation... bottom line was loss of trust. Where there is fear there is no trust. And when one is deceptive there is no trust....long story...still trying to recover from it...have lost trust in therapists in general....but willing to give it another shot with another t...
