It is the empathetic attunement that I need.

I have the same experience. I have spent so much of my life without attunement from the people who should have given it; the power of my therapy primarily comes from my therapist saying and showing that what I feel is okay and makes sense. I used to spend all my psychic energy criticizing myself and hating myself. My T has shown me how to simply accept myself and my feelings compassionately.
