I suppose it depends on just how crappy the things the T says and/or does are .. and how they resonate and hurt us because of our history of abuse.... whether they destroy our trust or not.

I agree with Fuzzy here. It really depends on the severity of what the T says/does. There are going to be mistakes, there are going to be countransferences that DO come into the session. The question is whether or not trust can be regained, and to what capacity. Again, it has to be treated less an an extreme and more as a development. Not that trust "comes back" but it develops, as it always has in the relationship. Perhaps think of it as a thermometer-- trust may have been increasing in degree, but then something happens-- so it drops a bit-- or maybe a lot-- but that doesn't mean it can't go back up again.
