After two+ years of therapy I'm finding that I'm extremely attached to my therapist. It's becoming difficult when I don't see her for days (we have sessions twice/week).
We had a session last week in which we somewhat talked about my attachment to her; she essentially said it's okay. But I'm not sure she realizes how deeply I am attached to her. One major reason I feel embarrassed to tell her is because I feel I have gotten ugly over the past year. I feel like she'll be disgusted by my attachment to her. In addition, I feel foolish for thinking such a thought. It sounds ridiculous to me, but the thought is stuck there. I'm also ashamed because I have bipolar disorder and I'm afraid she'll think Yuck, this ugly, crazy woman is too attached to me. Does anyone else feel like this? How do you handle it?
