I have asked current T to stop doing the following things (the word fake may have been used a few times) --
- Stop making sad "Aww" faces (and actually saying "Aww")
- Stop complimenting my intellect (I know exactly how smart -- or rather not -- I am)
- Stop swiveling her chair to the direction I'm looking in
- Stop telling me pointless stuff like she's there for me / cares about me blah blah

Her responses have mostly been that "It's unconscious" and she'll "try" to not be so annoying.

Unfortunately, my list only seems to grow longer after every session.

I should say that her most redeeming quality has been putting up with my obnoxiousness -- I'm not sure $125 an hour would be enough for me to do the same.
