T, it's you fault...

Wow, first of all I'm so sorry your T violated boundaries that must have made you feel a variety of emotions. Instead of me guessing, how have actions led you to feel? What does he blame you for and what does he become angry at? How are you coping?

I can't imagine the pain this is causing you. The T/client relationship is such an intense relationship...and to be talked to this way and to struggle with the integrity of the relationship would elicit such powerful, painful feelings...This is the one relationship that is meant to help you, and instead, it's causing you more pain. I'm sorry you're dealing with this and I hope you find the strength to make some difficult decisions to lead you to better health. (( HUGS ))

Maybe the way to find out if she is the right therapist for you is to show her the post you wrote on here. I am sure a good therapist would know how to deal with it well and not let any of their "own stuff" get in the way. Wouldn't it be great if we could only take our assertive adult rational selves with us to T and not get bogged down with all that other stuff that goes on in our heads.

Good luck cats. SD
