Gerber, your T isn't like a mechanic (anymore than you're like a car!); he can't do anything for or to you. He can't fix you even one little bit. All he can do is "be" there with you, his own authentic Self, and try to help you see how to be your Self. He's more companion rather than guide (though he's been on similar treks before) but if you don't help with deciding the route and won't walk with him, he's "helpless" because he's with you rather than you being with him! You're in charge; it's your therapy!
