unpopular opinion…
maybe we should quit focusing so much on the therapist, and focus on ourselves. we could save ourselves a lot of time and money if we quit playing and just did the work. then, we wouldn’t need to feel special or get mad when the therapist doesn’t say or do as we want them to. the whole point of therapy is to learn new behaviors and ways of dealing with issues. manipulation has got to go.
