During a very intense session today with my T, I revealed that I love her. She told me that she loves me too. It felt like such a deeply intimate moment, and finding out that my T has love for me feels so healing.

What I feel for her isn't romantic love at all (and it isn't quite mother/child love either) but since I came home, I've felt like I have a warm glow inside. I have other people in my life who love me-friends, a partner, parents....so why does this feel so different and so important? Is what I'm feeling ok?
