So I was relieved this week when he went with the usual, "Good to see you."

Sounds like your session went well. I have had these exact thoughts in my sessions and replay them over and over in between. I am usually wrong in my thinking and cause myself the distress, not my T. As my T. used to say "you're making this all about me". At the time I thought it IS all about you. But, it's not - it's all about my mother. Hang in there and try to remember positive times in your sessions when you start to go down the negative talk path.
