I picked a male therapist because I knew I had huge issues with men, no father, etc etc. My T at Menninger's was the good father figure, and I can never thank him enough for helping me to feel good about men on a level that includes warmth and caring. My current T is more my age, and so the sexual stuff is coming up. My last T was around my age too, but the sexual stuff, I never felt for him. I am not sure why, maybe becasue he was more business like. This T is warm and caring, and so now instead of the father stuff, the sexual stuff is coming up. This is what I am thinking. Does the CSA have anything to do with it? For me it is a variety of factors, like growing up without a father or father figure present; the sexual abuse, and also a mother who was unfortunately very paranoid and who would do crazy mentally abusive stuff.
