From what I've experienced in therapy, I don't see the therapist/client relationship as like any other "civilian" relationship. It just taps into so much deep stuff without the day-to-day routine that comes with other relationships, or even light fun times like going to the movies. I wouldn't take the way someone reacts to a therapist as the way they're going to relate to other people.

Which is part of how your T related to you so wrong.
Thanks for this!
