I agree with Stopdog on that. Trouble is, we get into the transference attachment thing and can't leave the T even if they're all wrong for us. I went through several traumatic terminations before I knew the difference between CBT and Dynamic Relationship Therapy. It would be great if we could go into therapy knowing more. But it is complex stuff and I don't know if even a brochure on therapy methods would have helped at the beginning. Sometimes leaving one T gradually by starting up with another also, is an easier way to change. I can't imagine going to therapy where my past is dismissed. I know now to ask what kind of therapy a T does, but it's way too late.
