Many of the items in your bullet list strike me as red flags. Reminds me of my experience -- the therapist became a hyper-idealized figure, could do no wrong, which laid the foundation for obsessive and regressive longings and emotional dependency.
Plus many of these apparently positive aspects were actually weird anomalies that did not translate to real life. And much of it was built on contrivance and artifice. It was a performance.
I realized it felt dangerous to trust in this context because it was dangerous.
