That said, I still think he’s way too controlling.

I feel like there can be a compromise there--some love, while also focusing on growing and helping the client to be independent. It doesn't have to be one or the other, which is what your T seems to think, Chihiro. And also what Dr. T seemed to think for a long time, but he's come around in some ways.
