I think it triggers something about how I'm just a patient on an assembly line despite how attuned, caring she is in session.

"Time is up!" and she can just switch focus, I'm just part of her job, nothing more. I leave after opening a can of crap and spilling my guts, and it's like she experienced zero impact.
I hear you. I leave devastated... or excited... and all I can think about within the next few hours (days, weeks... lol) it's our session. But I know he forgets about my existence as soon as I leave, because he has to concentrate on the next client and give him all his attention and care. It's his job. And I don't want him to think about me during someone else's session. But it feels weird.

He says he thinks about me between our sessions sometimes. But I'm still just a client. I'm not a part of his life, he doesn't like me as a person... I'm a part of his job. Like a financial report or something. Lol.
