interesting poll topic to consider...

i voted based on therapy with my ex-T and it was almost every session that the relationship came up and we even discussed it between sessions via emails and texts. looking back, at times i use to get very frustrated with how much he wanted to focus on our relationship and in those times would leave sessions feeling upset because i was not heard or understood...i felt i did not get a chance to fully voice and address the issues that i wanted to bring to the session. because of this, my conclusion has been that much of my therapy was more about my ex-T, his needs and his agenda.

reading through some of the responses that people have left so far, i do wonder if those who have a T who does not focus so much on the relationship actually have had a more positive experince of therapy or are more satisfied with their overall outcomes of therapy.
