Some therapists cannot deal with transference and others will not. I wonder if some of it has to do with how much time insurance companies are willing to pay and for how long. Ts may want to spend time dealing on things that are getting in the way of us having fulfilling, productive lives even though painful transference can stop us in our tracks.

A point that hasn't been discussed yet (on this subject). Money. Insurance.
I'm remembering, right now, how many times my therapist has assured me that my insurance doesn't seem to have a time limit on how many therapy sessions I am permitted to have. Furthermore, the clinic she works for has no time limit, either.
If I lost my insurance today, I'd never see the woman again.
Reality: Money talks / Bullsh*t walks.
I wonder how many T's think, "Am I making enough money on this client to justify the amount of time and energy I'm putting out?"
Are there therapists who charge a normal neurotic less than they charge a challenging client with BPD? Hmmm...
