Here's a thread for you to post something you wish you therapist would or would not do.

Example:

Dear T,
I wish you would stop with the long silences after I tell you something important and shocking.
Thanks for this!

I wish you'd realize what a horrible person I am & stop trying to sweet talk me! I'm not falling for it.
Just throw me in a hospital then u don't have to see me.

I wish you'd love me back. I know we can't be friends (or god forbid lovers) but just love me as a client the way I love you as my therapist.

I did want you to explain what you were trying to do. But as you refused, and I am resourceful, I have found ways of getting the information I seek without your input. Your refusal did not thwart me. Now all I require is for you to sit there and pretend to listen. And sometimes you manage to even **** that up.

somehow let me see you weekly for 90 minutes again, or even every 2 weeks for 90 minutes instead of 60. Maybe I can pay you for the extra half an hour some of the time?

tell me more about yourself

Dear New T, I wish you would stop saying "look at me". I can not look at you! I feel like I'm being tasered! I think you think that it will make me listen better, hear better what you're saying - but it doesn't - because all the scared feelings from trying to make eye complete overwhelm my brain, and none of the audio gets in. Sorry, but true. Just let me stare at the floor like everyone else surely does! Please?

Dear Previous T,
I wish you would've just explained, and not given me part answers and red herrings and left me half crazy trying to figure out why. I wish you had seen that going there was more than I could handle at the time.

Dear T,

I wish you would drag it all out of me, and then beat me while you say all the nice things I need to hear.

Dear T,

I wish therapy was kinky.

I don't have a therapist, but to the useless one I was seeing:

I wish you would have let me talk about what I wanted to talk about. I have a lot of crappy things going on in my life and no one to talk to about them. I still need someone to talk to about them. I'm so jealous of people who have support systems and don't have to pay someone to listen to them only to find out that not even the person they paid will listen.

The long silence gets in my nerve too.
I think its a cop out for them to be honest. As long as they say nothing they feel the will not get in to trouble or appear to involved with a client.
What sets me of is a T that is 100% reliant on the text books or education all the time. I love it when people stand on their own two feet and deal with things in a genuine and real way. False and phony people get in to my bad books.
... so I wish T would be real.
