I am not sure what I think. I first had a T who said our relationship was a practice one for real life, but when it came to us communicating about the relationship, he was wasn't comfortable
With my current T of almost a year now, we talk about our relationship on how each other in the room affects each other. But I wouldn't say our therapy is based on our relationship. It is more about my feelings, past, and future.
But maybe I don't struggle because it is such a good one and things are open and honest. He calls the ace an ace of spades he says (don't know where he got the terminology from. But what he means is he calls it like it is.
I am sure you can do therapy either using the relationship directly or not. What it comes down to is that it is an easy way for T's to use as an example, to teach. I think I need to get to bed, not sure if this helped at all. lol
