He's also not of the belief that "it's the relationship that heals" - he doesn't think that's enough. My therapy is much more about helping me figure out what I can do to build up my resources to help myself. I like this- it's super straightforward.
I wonder how many therapists are like him? I think some of the newer forms of therapy don't use transference as much.

My T sounds more like yours than others'. You know, I don't know if transference is a thing because T's talk about it, or if T's talk about transference because it's a thing. If that makes any sense.
Porque no los dos, I guess...
