Pretty sure my therapist (PhD psychologist) didn't really have training in it, as he hurt me pretty badly with his reaction to something (it involved a transitional object--I wrote about it fairly extensively on here, but it was before your time, LostisLost) early on in my seeing him. But over 3 years later, he seems to get it now. Hopefully I've managed to help his future clients in some way...

Moxie, I'm sorry you had to deal with all that, too. I'm glad he's realized it was his stuff and finally admitted it, but sorry it took so long and hurt you in the process. Have you noticed a change in how he works with you now?
