My T seems to be deeply satisfied when I express dissatisfaction with her. I raised a very mild complaint in session the other day, and she said later on that she would "like to hear more." Except I don't think there's much more to it. It's an odd dynamic.

She said once that when she supervises student therapists, they get really nervous when their clients get angry with them, and she tries to tell them in supervision that it's great that their client trusts them enough to express their anger. I still kinda don't think it would be fun, though. Important, maybe, but not fun.
