I am totally embarassed I froze in the waiting room chair and could not get up. I have no idea what happened. I knew I had anxiety about our pending session and thought I would be ok when you came to get me but my body panicked. What a scene. You trying to get me to stand and go in your office. I wish I can wipe that out of my memory. Ugh.....please do not ask me to talk about it or mention it ever.

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.
