I've got attached to Counsellors in the past and it made it very painful when the counselling came to an end.

Have now been seeing a Clinical Psychologist since June and don't feel attached to her at all (even though she says that attachment to the therapist is a necessary part of the therapy I'm doing). I would say I don't really feel anything. She's nice enough and seems to know her stuff, but it wouldn't bother me if I never saw her again.
Am wondering if I've deliberately put up a barrier against becoming attached because it's just too painful.
