My T is very earnest about therapy ,believes in it, is ethical , and gives a very good session . That might BE the whole job, and all the experiences outside the 45 or 50 minute session are the patient's problem so to speak. Certainly, that is my T's view.
He is a little full of himself, a little arrogant- like today he commented he hoped I didnt think he was God!!!! ( I am agnostic lol). God- complex?
My T and I built a good foundation, and shared many sessions of difficult self revelation on my part and immense empathy on his.
I just dont know how it has departed from that, and gone wrong in the dynamic. The trust is less, and the feeling detachment preceding a break up lingers in the room.
I wish I knew how to reel it in, but half of me has a foot out the door.
