Mine is CBT-schema, and we often have mini-debates over my hatred of CBT. i am wondering if maybe his "cognitive focus" is maybe what makes me back up from him. Your T seems to have what i call "the emotional lure" down pat. He lays out an emotional setting for you to join in.

gerber, it must be very very hard to connect to a T who uses a therapeutic approach you hate. I would think this would throw up a huge barrier to closeness. Is there any way to try a different T who uses a more compatible approach? (I'm remembering in the back of my head that maybe you can't because there are only CBT in your area?)
