There is nothing that a therapist can do. I see it as the job of the client. As a client you need to remind yourself daily...this T is not my friend not my spouse not my mom not my dad,etc over and over again. they can be friendly, be a good listener, empathize etc. but they are a paid professional and the moment you let your heart forget that is trouble!

They can not save you...you have to do that for yourself...and yes lots of people need a T to get there but they are only there to walk along...and a different T can do that too.
