Thanks for all of your responses, it’s really helped me realise that this is actually a positive thing that is happening. I definitely feel safer with this T than I ever did with the previous T, which is odd when I’ve only seen her for a couple of months.
I think what would make me feel better is just the occasional validation when I’m crying, so something like ‘I can see this is really hard for you but I’m here with you.’ That would help make it feel like I wasn’t just being stared at and ignored and she really is ‘with’ me. I have massive problems talking about what I need though so this may be a challenge to bring up with her.
