You're 100% right on this. A lot of my fury is about her refusal to deal with the power imbalance openly. And with the baloney excuses she's given me for misunderstandings in the past.
Further, I'm pretty cynical about therapists' motivations for being therapists, and about their motivations for providing a given standard of care. That, in turn, could be about something else. I want to grow to MY personal best, not to a level that's 'great' in comparison to the shrink's average client.
