Yeah, it seems a bit manipulative. But the projective identification does seem to fit with how yucky we are feeling out of proportion to the actual events. The theory is that she has taken that yuckiness out of herself because it's "bad" and given it to us instead. Because who wants to feel that?
I have to believe that she is doing okay with her clients. I know her supervisor has been apprised of the situation and she gets much closer, more directive supervision than others at her level.
But yeah, it's an issue. I think in some ways, placing her here is allowing for some screening in that the supervisors know how the last three years have been. I think they thought it was finally time to get her to work on it. And I really believe that once she is done with her CCE she will calm down a bit. Assuming she passes. It was a big load off of my shoulders getting mine done.
Now, if only we could get her into therapy. It's done wonders for me.
