Right. You're the expert on you and what has been useful in your therapy. It is a really great thing that you have a T whose skills and personality are compatible with your needs. However you cannot reasonably extrapolate from that experience that no one needs a T with specialized training or that somehow the fault lies with the client for being unable to get their needs met.

In my experience as a queer person with a straight T (who to my knowledge did not receive specialized training in LGBT issues), what has been invaluable to me has been her unwavering belief that my knowledge and experience are valid. If she had minimized my experience by suggesting that everyone struggles with something and we are all human and similar happy horseshit, it would have been tremendously invalidating. Personal hardship and systemic oppression, though not mutually exclusive, deserve to be understood as separate entities and, IMHO, analogies between them should be drawn carefully and infrequently.
