T's are supposed to decide about working with you. If they can't accept behavior that might come with your disorder or the transferance they should not be working with you. For example, some T's will not work with people with anti-social personality disorder because they can get violent in session and throw things.

Sure, boundaries are important. Some people have the misconcpetion that anything goes in therapy. Violent behavior in the therapy room is not acceptable, whether it is part of the disorder or not. I've worked with plenty of violent people in the hospital-- and boundaries are set to let the patient know that I don't give a %#@&#! if punching the wall is part of the disorder or not-- it's not going to happen in this session. There are so many other things that can be done in place of that action. Therapy is not accomplished by acting out.
