Trauma survivors have really good instincts and mine are telling me he is lying to me and is using tactics to get me to unattached to him.
I do not believe he is on vacation. I wanted to just show up at his office to actually see if he was there but I did not.
Since I started with him he has ALWAYS replied to any email or journal I sent him. Even when he was away. Last time he went to Denmark for 10 days and insisted I go ahead and email him because at night he likes to read his emails. It is just what he does he said. So on Saturday I sent him something to see if he would respond. As I suspected he did not. Just a tactic I have read on here that therapist do. They do a complete 360 in how they behave with clients.
And before anyone tells me I have cognitive distortions and his behavior is not about me and maybe he has something going on I already thought about that. Sure I could be wrong but I will never know. Therapists lie to protect themselves.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
