I'm so sorry this is happening to you. My damage was not from attachment so much as idolization, which the co-therapists encouraged. When I announced my termination, their haughty condescension boiled over to outright vitriol and brutality.

My "recovery" is realizing emotionally there was nothing divine about these people--they're merely someone's classmates who took a bunch of classes and hung shingles.

I think the unique role playing of therapy creates potential for damage. No one holds authority over anyone else in the situation, and it's distorting to create that illusion.
