I think you have a point worth considering. In other words, UPR may not ALWAYS be "good", as I think it has been assumed in the literature and by many readers including me. Plus, it feels "good", so the client is not going to know about the danger in advance. |
But what therapist is love bombing??? My therapist is very affectionate and attentive but at most i get a text reply every day, she gave me a stuffed animal once etc.
I experienced love bombing as part of a toxic church environment . It's intense. And persistent. It doesn't just happen during church services a few times a week ( comparable to therapy). Those people wanted to be with me ALL THE TIME til i was hooked.
Nothing my therapist has ever done is even close to comparable
