Absolutely, thank you for the input.

I have told PrevT quite a lot about my therapy with CurrentT, so she may be making assumptions based on that. I admit with this latest confusion PrevT may be wrong.

What does she mean about "negotiate the direction of growth?"
I take it to mean CurrentT and I will decide what the boundaries of this attachment or bond are...together....what I feel is helpful..as well as what CurrentT feels is helpful.

I have found that flare ups like this with CurrentT usually happen because I have heard something incorrectly..as in, not understood what she meant. I will be talking to CurrentT about this very soon.
