((((Earthmama)))),
I'm so sorry your coloring session didn't go well  Sigh. What are we going to do with our Ts?
What I hear you saying is that you told T that you wanted a session that felt safe and nurturing. T started talking about hugs, the minister and wouldn't stop even when you asked him to do so. Did you feel that he wouldn't stoop even though you asked repeatedly?
HTML Code:
I was sitting there feeling safe and he took it away from me.
What do you think about this quote now that you read it out of context? You are not overreacting! Usually, though, when people "overreact" to a certain situation, it can mean that the issue is more than what's going on in the here and now (that's my experience, at least).
About the hugs. I don't know this for sure, I may be completely off, but it sounds like he is concerned that as you work through this trauma, that you might start having negative transference toward him?? This happened to me before and is difficult to "climb" out of. So, I think he's doing this because he cares about you so much! He wants you to continue to feel safe with him so you can work this through with him! I do wish he had been able to wait one more session. But, I guess your T is worried about you and for some reason didn't think it should wait.
I'm so sorry that your are hurthing, EM! PM me if you need to
