What is the most important quality in a pdoc or therapist?

Kay's main autobiography is An Unquiet Mind (a general overview) but she has another called Touched by Fire (more relating creativity to mental illness) fyi
I don't know if this counts as a "quality in them" but most people I absolutely cannot feel or think for myself around because everything I feel/think/do is "wrong" but every now and then I land on someone I can be myself around, and it's cool whether it's a pdoc/t or not.
