krazibean, i have to take back suggestion to leave T that I made in my original post.

I've been reading a book today about therapy ("How to Go to Therapy" Making the Most of Professional Help. by Carl Sherman

I'm reminded of 2 things:
One is that I don't know anything.
The other is that things like what you write about in your post, your T's statements as well as your feelings about them, are for exploring more in therapy; there is so much to learn in all of this.

T, these words hurt me

thanks for your honesty echoes. i appreciate you taking the time to come back here and re-evaluate my situation. everyone says to leave T, and although she was very hurtful and it doesn't seem like i'm very happy with her, i can't imagine going through another loss because i care about her so much. i can't imagine never seeing her again and starting with a new T. If this can be worked through, then i think we will come out even better. but thats not saying it might not kill us along the way. but i have to at least try.

Krazibean,
I am following Echoes lead. I do hope you tell your T and discuss this with her. I think I let some of my anger at my T carry over onto yours and I apologize for that. I honestly hope you work it out! Take care

It always depends on *how* things are said but the responses you're describing sound like they cross the line.

Have you brought this issue up yet with *her*, and if so, how did she respond?

Sometimes a person's response to criticism (given respectfully) will tell you a lot about them—in this case whether you can expect to hear more (semi-?)abusive rhetoric in the future.
