I miss chatting with you both...
I love that we've all been in therapy with the same therapists long enough (so long?) that we can say what we need and most of the time, our therapists adjust so that we get it. Not always, of course, but even when I say, "I don't know what I need!" he manages to find it with me.
Dinah - the best thing about your therapist has always been his willingness to look at himself and his part in the interactions. I love that he himself uses the "mommy/therapist" term now. :) With so much crap around about creating dependency in clients, it takes a very secure therapist to allow this.
I had one of those smile moments this week. I was relating an interaction with an intern in which I said, "what do you need from me today?" and my therapist said, "you sound like me." Yup - channeling him totally in that moment. He was fine with that.
Hugs,
Daisy
