O geez I just had displaced anger I think. I sent an email to the creator of the therapy modality my T is shoving down my throat:
A few weeks ago I had an attentive therapist, we had a great working relationship until he decided to take CEUS and take your DMNS training. Now all he does every single session is force this on me. It does not work. The resource team is ********. No amount of imaginary people will fix my issue. Now it has put a huge rupture in my relationship with my therapist and I have been in wreck for weeks.
If I email him for help he just repeats the entire resource team crap again and again. He says this is it. This is the only thing that is going to help me. I am painfully attached to him and I feel like someone close to me has died.
Before I felt like I had hope and I was living now every day I am just trying to breathe and get through each hour.
Your work is not helping. It is damaging.
She emailed me back:I'm sorry to hear your therapy has taken a downturn. It's very important for DNMS therapists to be highly attuned. I'd be happy to consult with your therapist if he's interested in learning more about how to do that. Just ask him to email me.
Kindest regards,
Don't I feel sheepish. I told her there was no way in hell I was going to tell him I emailed her. I am afraid he would terminate me.

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.
