What is a connection between therapist and client? What does that mean or look like to you?
I do not believe I have one to the therapists I hire - I am not certain how such a thing would be possible to have with a stranger like the therapist. I don't know why such a thing would even be desirable. It certainly did not happen when I let the woman talk - that was actively repellent. Now that the woman does not talk and I only use her for two topics completely unrelated to why I went to see a therapist in the first place, I still don't see how any part of it could be described as having a connection with someone who is sitting there acting a role.

So just thought I would ask what others mean when they say they think they are connected.
