Dear MC,
A bit nervous to see you today, with all the inner child e-mails. Not nervous you'll reject me, just...nervous. I'm guessing maybe we should talk about some of that stuff today, unless there's something that H has in mind that he hasn't mentioned (it's not like we've had any major conflicts over the past week). I'm just not 100% sure what exactly I want to talk about in that context. You mentioned the security thing, so there's that. There's the talking about my inner child's needs. And then just the fact that I miss you rather intensely between sessions. I hope your solution to that isn't to stop e-mailing or something like that--I think that's something I need to figure out on my own timing.

But maybe you'll have some ideas of how I can hold onto the secure feeling, to trust that you still exist, even when I don't have any proof of that? I don't even know--maybe you could lead the discussion a little? Surely you've experienced this with other clients (though likely not marriage counseling ones), right? I know you've had past clients with transference, since you mentioned that it had happened to you before when I shared those feelings. So...was there something that worked for them? Maybe just talking about it will help. Hope to see you in about 96 minutes (but who's counting?)
Love,
LT
