I would want support and guidance from my T. Maybe I just define these words differently. I understand that they must keep a certain distance.
I don't think I helped at all but I am hoping someone else can relate to your situation.

Hi sideblinded
sorry if I was unclear. I meant, basically, I want her to listen to whatever I have to share as much as I need, I want to be in charge of my treatment, the method and our agenda, and I want her to give me honest feedback about how she's feeling about me and my issues.
But, either way, it's still all about my issues, my needs, and my health, so it's not really about distance, but I don't know if she will be comfortable with it, or if I'm asking too much? I just want a safe relationship that can be transparently and honestly processed and analyzed between both of us, that's all... :s I can't do that if she is hiding her feelings and reactions.
