I am very torn as to whether I want T to cry or not. On the one hand it feels good to know that she cares. I have mentioned in the past that I don't feel like just another client or that I am just her job. When she mentioned that she has at times cried in our session the reason she holds it back is one time years ago told her about her terminally ill child and she couldn't hold back the tears. The client never went to another session because she felt she had to protect T. T was devastated. She will never forget that. I hate when people cry because I know they are hurt and try to fix it. If T were to really cry I suspect I would have the same reaction.
