I would take the notepad and ask him if the couch or chair would be better ,, and then say " So what brings you here " ?

I can understand that reaction, this is where boundaries come in and the T is supposed to explain that you are not responsible for them and what they feel. Many times I have caught myself trying to protect T from my emotions and she has had to remind me that it wasn't my job to do so, it is scary to share something on such a deep level.
I am sending you many safe hugs.
