No, although my last T did ask for me to be vulnerable with her once. I replied, "I can't be vulnerable with you, I don't trust you!" I was somewhat surprised by my response -- I think it came from the largely unconscious/ cut-off part of me. And consistent with what my T had said was my anxious-ambivalent attachment style. That intuition/mistrust proved trust-worthy, since the therapy ended in a rupture-without-repair. Or maybe a self-fulfilling prophecy? But since that T couldn't help me with it, from my perspective the mistrust was well-founded.
