My T has actually said that the relationship is the therapy or something like that. I had no idea what that meant in the beginning but I do now. I’m also embarrassed about it because it just feels weird when you think about it. I suppose it’s just transference, but it feels real and intense. My T’s answer to everything is “we talk about it” so I guess that’s what we’re supposed to do, but sometimes it’s hard and awkward.
