More of the time in therapy I am dealing with fear, sadness, and anger but I actually have enormous positive feelings about the process and the T. The nature of our work just means those positive feelings don’t often come up in session.

I guess that I'm struggling because I felt a pretty quick "oh, I can see myself developing a good relationship with this guy" with my most recent T. And I did. I am not feeling that now, so while I'm engaged with the process, I don't know if I can have positive feelings with this T.
But I am a huge fan of therapy cheesecake. We should all have therapy desserts!
