After I was terminated Iīm still looking for a T, Iīve been looking for eight months now and I feel worse as more and more times passes. I know I need a T who can deal with anger and disappointment and who understands that I need someone I can trust and get attached to.
But all I seem to find is T:s that sits in their chairs like it was some kind of coffee talk and they donīt show that much empathy. It feels like wasting time and like they donīt want to get any deeper connection with me as a client. For me thatīs crucial but I donīt know how to find such a T.
I want a psychodynamic T and Iīve seen only T:s working within this kind of therapy. Iīm sure about the form of therapy per se. But all T:s Iīve met with seem to work with quite "easy" problems where the client is satisfied if he/she gets to talk a little to someone.
My former T who terminated me had more of focus on creating a deeper relation and to really understand me. But it seems most T:s donīt.
I really donīt know what to ask for anymore, Iīve presented my problems to the T:s Iīve met and Iīve told them I want to work through things on a more deeper level. I understand this canīt happen immediately but noone has said like "yes, thatīs the way I work".
I also need a T who can handle some anger, Iīm not aggressive but Iīm angry about how I was treated as a child and I have problems with feelings of abandonment and alienation. I need to talk about this and I know thereīs a risk Iīll look upon the T as a person who abandons me.
I donīt want to go into psychoanalysis though but I donīt know what to really ask for, no T so far has got what I want so to speak. Any advice?
