You're going to be a T Mona. You want to know how many times you're going to hear some variant of this from DV survivors? How are you going to help them leave if you can't do it yourself? You are going to be a T.

Yes and no. But not being able to face one's own stuff and deal with it is going to lead to problems with genuineness. The T is going to have to 'hide' part of themselves and the client will feel the distance there.
This kind of distance, AFAIKS, is what Mona is currently dealing with with her T.
