I think a T who cares about us as a human being feels something...sadness perhaps...but a good T is able to feel that and still connect with us and our need / desire to self-injure. They understand why and how it helps us cope.

My T recently said that it made her sad to think of me being harmed...even if i was the one doing the harming.

It's important to have a T who can hear us talk about this stuff, though, and isn't deep down afraid of it. Yours might not be there, yet, so it might be something to address with her directly.
