L has judged ex-T. She says things like ex-T makes her angry that she couldn't handle her own transference. Or that I can slam a door with her and she won't get mad. I never thought she was insulting me by being with ex-T for any amount of time. I think she was just validating my experience. She doesn't know very many positive good things from ex-T, but that's because I wasn't able to hold onto any after ex-T left. L does encourage me to talk to T when I'm having a hard time. And she wants me, one day to try to work things through with J.

I get how the positive attitude can be annoying.
With L, it sounds like she was validating and responding to specific things ex-T did rather than ex-T as a whole. I hope you found it validating. I'm glad she encourages you to talk to T. I appreciate that Dr. T is fine with me consulting with R, even at times when he's not on vacation.
