Thanks, Daisy. That helps to hear.

MC has NEVER said a bad word about T, even when I was really upset with her about something and asked to talk about it for a bit in session. So it's just confusing when T makes some of the comments about him or, say, rolls her eyes when I mention a sports analogy he used in session. I know she's looking out for me as her client (and I'm pretty sure she has some maternal countertransference going on, too, from stuff she's said), but it's awkward for me, especially when, for the most part, I find the outside contact with him to be helpful, not harmful. Does some of what he does maybe intensify the transference/attachment at times? Maybe. But he's also helping me to work through it (and I feel like she hasn't been so helpful with that).

Maybe I need to say something to T about that...how it's confusing and generally not helpful when she's critical of MC...
