Triggered many times, especially by ex T, but sometimes by current T even. It’s a natural part of therapy.
Re-traumatized, yes, by ex T. She tried (and succeeded) at getting me very, very attached to her/developing strong maternal transference, and she was supposed to show me in doing this that secure attachments do exist and that she wouldn’t abandon me. Then...she abandoned me. First emotionally with placing sudden new boundaries with no explanation, and next actually physically by leaving to go practice in a different state. It was not a pleasant experience for me.
