I must say that I personally don't like this T very much. He seems very ... cognitive (for the lack of a better word) and I guess I don't have much faith in dealing with deep attachment and trust issues using such a cognitive style. Whether this is something that suits you and something that you need is up to you LT. I did like this T in the beginning because he sounded very fresh and crisp in comparison to old T and MC. However, over time it has come out that he really has no clue how to work with attachment and transference and I'm afraid it is going to be one helluva painful teaching process for you.

When I think about the things he has told you or asked you in session I shudder. I know I couldn't tolerate it because at least some of his questions sound not invitations to explore but rather hidden judgements. Also, I would think that the goal of a supervision/intervision group should be to help the T to better understand his own reactions and emotions with the goal of better adjusting to the patient's needs. Although you haven't written about what happened yet, it seems that this was not what happened in that supervision group.
