So it is done.....I created a word document, with everything I feel and how it has been effecting me along with Moonlitsky's response, and sent it in an email. I did it that way because my appointment is tomorrow and I wanted him to have time to process it himself, have time to layout a plan instead of me handing it to him in session. I did not want him to feel put on the spot nor could I bear him reading it in front of me. Blak! That would be yucky uncomfortable.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
