When you were talking about your mother and he said "let's keep it in the room" I think he might have meant don't go back to your mother and start taking the issues up with her, but work it out with him. Because when I was saying in therapy how all this talk about childhood was making me hate my parents and he said it'll get worked out I asked if he meant by taking it to them and he said no, by working it out here.
That said, I am still not over my feelings for my former therapist. We had an incredible rapport and I got a lot out of it but he "forgot" to tell me about his vacation. That and a few other things showed me he had trouble with his counter-transference. Now I'm with a woman who loves to hear herself talk and shows little empathy - at least I won't be too attached.
