I have never liled this T. A therapeutic relationship shouldn't cause you more harm than good. And he is being defensive and reflecting onto you, least imo.

Thanks, Scarlet. That's something I said to him today, about how I'd often been feeling worse after sessions. Like, not sessions talking about, say, trauma,where maybe it makes sense to feel worse. But sessions talking about the therapeutic relationship. I kept trying to convince myself that this T was good for me, that he was what I really needed. But I really just don't think he's a good fit...
