Thanks sunnydays!
>>>I don't think it would be possible at this point for her to 'only' do bodywork given the
relationship you have<<<** You're right. I spent all day reflecting on the progress I've made with her. All the ups and downs. (I have this highlight reel in my head of all my best and worst therapy moments that I tend to play over and over)
She knows far too much about me and I care far too much about her for our relationship to ever be anything less than therapist/client. You're right. I don't think I could see her as just a 'bodyworker' and NOT talk about what is going on in my life.
I did talk to her about the transference during my last session and I think it went well. She said sometimes therapist have counter transference reactions too. She even brought up the fact that its not uncommon to have crushes or strong romantic feelings for a therapist although I assured her that I'm quite certain my feelings are maternal. (I feel like a five year old every time I lay on the table.)
So yes, maybe I should try to work it out with her. Yet I want more guidance and feedback from her which she refuses to do sometimes. And thats frustrating.
Thanks for your input. : )
Regard,
