This thread is therapy for me right now! Therapy for my therapy. My T and I got in a battle over him cancelling yet another session even though it is after the holidays, when he considers it sacrosanct for me to make all of them, and charges for missing. I also was totally hurt by how he said it at the door(knob)- Oh I am out of town Friday. Like he was a CEO and I was a 1950's secretary when we had just spent fifty minute speaking of very intimate trauma stuff he pushes for. This is the first issue in a year and a half we cannot bridge or even understand the other's viewpoint. I am SOOOOO tempted to skip the next session to prove a point, or have him feel what it's like to sit there with his contentious reliable doormat client not showing up. Problem is, it would just hurt myself and he probably wouldn't even care.
