How did you get past that pattern?
The idea behind attaching to or depending on therapists? I guess the idea is to provide a "corrective emotional experience" via some sort of reparenting scenario. Sounds good on paper. In practice seems pretty insane, unproven, dangerous. The details are rarely elaborated, nor are the risks. I question whether this practice should even be allowed to exist.

I meant out the pattern as in not in therapy anymore.
Thanks for this!
