Im interested to hear what he said.
The way this therapy is done is for character change rather than addressing symptoms, which involves integration of disavowed feelings and experiences.
In addition to what everyone else said, I would say overall, it can result in feeling more like yourself, being true to yourself, and having more autonomy.
I also found that through understanding, the past has less power over me now, and so my feelings and behaviors are less influenced by the past. When the transference dissolves, you sort of see things in a different light and can make better choices.
Wish I did this therapy years ago instead of later on life.
