Totally agree. I kept telling my ex-T. that I didn't feel she cared or was reassuring. She told me it was my transference blocking me from seeing/feeling it. She told me that her other clients think she is which totally invalidated me. New T. says all that matters IS MY perception.

Thanks for sharing the video.
