My T seems mainly clued up on human interaction and what is going on between us in the relationship. She gets that to offer something and not follow through hurts hugely (helped largely I think by an incident very early on in our work together) and that if she forgets she needs to come clean and tell me straight. She seems to fully understand the awkwardness around therapy and helps in whatever ways she can. She has not (so far) changed any boundaries at all and I think she would understand that it would be bad to do so without an upfront discussion and I am sure she would allow all of my comments and hurt to be at the forefront should this matter arise.
However, I still think she is largely clueless as to where I am coming from, though the last couple of weeks this may be changing, or she is just putting a better act on, though I hope it is the former. I struggle to understand how someone so seemingly clued up can be so clueless, unless I really am the first person that she has ever worked with who has got the issues that I have got. Who knows.
