I did that favor for my t today and I am on cloud nine. Today I love my t, damn I hate these feelings.
It was lovely to spend time with t outside of session and to get to know more about her. It was nice that she trusted me to do this for her. She was really grateful and I was sorry about how are sessions are sometimes and wonder what goes wrong. Perhaps if t was a friend and notmy t everything would be ok.

I don't believe that there is such a thing as a wounded healer, except as an archetype. Jung was explicit in stating that anyone who identifies with an archetype is in deep **** and mentally unbalanced. It's the sign of an inflated ego. When you think about it, your therapist rewards you when you lower yourself, see how you have erred, and lap up her wisdom. She punishes you when you question her. How is that healing?
