Just saying, I have 2 t,s my susbstance abuse group t which next week will be my last which I will attend, I usually have group and individual seesions, in individual sessions I only discuss my alcohol problems and other non deep issues, because , I discuss the deep issues with my primary t, anyway. the substance abuse t she is only 26 yrs old way younger than me, she recently graduated t school.

She always says she wheres her emotions on her sleeve, she tells me she is somewhat shy, which I can tell, she blushes, and she apologizes alot, she also tells me sometimes she is awkward and lame. WTF. So I feel sorry for her, of course, this is why I never went into deep rooted issues with her, she couldnt possible handle it.

She might just start crying or something lol. So I sometimes feel like I need to help her.

One of my Ts I do, a bit...although he seems very emotionally put together, he wears t-shirts with huge holes in them (like, underarms) and part of me is thinking oh please someone, help him. I hope he gets a girlfriend or something. I know how competent he is as a T but how he doesn't look the part...and he can't seem to file my insurance or cash my checks, either. I asked him about the latter once and he pulled them out of his pocket, all crumpled up. Eek! I think my OCD just kicks in full blast. His office is very neat but he said his house isn't. I believe him...I am sure I don't want to know.

Heck no! I would not stay with a therapist that dumpted her stuff on me. I've had a few try from very early on, and I did not stay with them. Completely out of line and focused on the WRONG person.

My T is very careful to stop me or at least point it out whenever I start to take care of him. He very consistently reminds me that taking care of him is his job and that I do not need to worry about it or even think about it.

There is nothing I can say to him that he cannot handle and if he ever finds that not to be the case, it is his responsibility to take care of himself through supervision or whatever else he needs to do. But it will never, ever be my responsibility to hold back for fear of hurting him.

Sounds like you should charge her! Not all T's are good ones. You deserve the best.
