He Ferret,

I've only had two Ts and both have been males. When I considered going to therapy, I really didn't want a female T. I dreaded that I would experience her as my mother and I already have too many mother issues. Since we've been talking about the meat and patatoes, I thought about whether it would be easier with a female T. Idk, maybe, who knows. Maybe having a male T will be even more healing for my relationships if I ever manage to heal this. That's what I tell myself. He is gentle, supportive, steady, I have no complaints, well except that he is analytical not warm and fuzzy, but that's another story. Thanks for your response
