> Not dealing with transference when it is occurring can be damaging. What a relief and what a difference for me when I switched to a therapist who did deal with transference.
I remember you've said that before. It makes a lot of sense to me.
> My old therapist tried to tell me that she couldn't help me anymore, but I wasn't inclined to listen. I think it might be helpful if you do have that "How do you think therapy is going" conversation. If he feels like he isn't helping you as much as you need, perhaps he can give you a referral.
I'm really starting to think that the point of therapy is to make progress! And that may mean moving to a different therapist... I'd rather eat my own ears than leave Bert, but on the other hand there's no point in continuing like this.
> When you need real psychodynamic therapy, there is no substitute.
Yeah... I really think I do need it. Thanks, Falls.
