Attachment to Your Therapist | Psychology Today

What is he trying to tell me with this? It feels like this is more of the "I can only do so much" talk that's he's been giving me over the last two weeks. I was mostly at peace with my feelings of neediness, but I'm starting to feel ashamed of them.
I am not persuaded that childhood needs can never be met in adulthood. I believe this to be a self-serving therapist dogma. After all, how can we know it won't work if the therapist never even tries?
