My therapist only in his 30's and maybe practicing for 6 yrs so NO he has not heard it all as of yet. I guess it depends on how much time they have been doing therapy and what kind and what type of clients they attract.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
