Really Happy to see things worked out for you. I always sensed your therapist cared for you, though I realize none of us on the outside know what's really going on in anyone's therapy....
So glad he owned his role. I think when therapists do that, it sort of clears the slate for positive feelings, helps you get unstuck from the negative feelings so that things can move forward in a positive direction. (Also thinking that's true of relationships outside of therapy too.)
I wonder what took him so long....
