I hope you can find a way to discuss this rupture and work through it. Your T has told you he has mishandled it. Could you try to work from this day forward and not on the past inconsistencies? Could you tell him you need consistency from now on and then ask him to repeat his current phone policy and stick to that in the future? The past inconsistencies cannot be erased, and he has acknowledged his culpability. What else could he do to help you through this?

Once I began a session telling my T the frame felt wobbly to me. We then worked on ways to make it stronger and make me feel more secure. If ever a frame was wobbly and needed shoring up, yours does. Can you work together with T to solve this problem?

Hang in there, dear.
