I know this is a little off topic, but does inner child work mean relating to your T as a parent?

Good question, but I don't think so. I believe that in my circumstance, it is what I need right now in order to heal. The lack of object constancy has something to do with a damaged relationship with my mother, or so I think.

Another type of connection I feel: that between healer and the one being healed. I see my T as a healer, complete with a certain inexplicable, shamanistic element. It sometimes seems very primitive to me, what he is doing. I feel it is part of a tradition that stretches back through time, and in our own time, across cultures.

Oh yes, Sunny, I think of T's room as the healing room. And he is definitely the shaman!!
