Just be honest with him about how that made you feel. For example, there have been times in which I felt like my Ts empathy was the time of empathy that comes out of a psychology book when you're 1st learning to be a therapist. You know, like you say, "My depression is immobilizing." And then you're T says, "Wow. That must be really difficult." When my T has missed a here-and-now moment it has torn me up... the best thing I could have done was tell him the next time how it made me feel. His response was surprising... He told me, "I think you are right, I should have gone about it a different way, etc." I have become more comfortable with confronting my T when disconnect occurs. He will now tell me, "I felt that disconnection, too. I knew we were not on the same page." On Tuesday, let your T know you guys were not on the same page.
