I am generally quite stoic and independent to a fault ... so this is bizarre to me.

I had no idea this is what therapy was when I began with him. He said to me early on that only I knew what I needed to heal. For me, part of that is the unconscious need to depend on someone and trust someone, as I have never done that before successfully (and not had the trust betrayed). The relationship really is so healing. Welcome to it. It's OK. In fact, it's wonderful.
