I am mildly attached to my current therapist, J. However, he seems very uncomfortable with any sort of real attachment, and it is just not working out. He is very young, and I am not in a place right now where I want to be anyone's "learning client." So, I'm currently seeking a therapist who is very experienced in attachment work.
Yeah, it can be very covert when they use it for themselves. They're human, we all do it, but when you're in therapy to heal those issues, no bueno!!
Thanks for this!
