Hi, Backseat. You need a clear explanation of why he doesn't accept your stories. I really find it odd-- but maybe he has some idea that he needs to limit the content of the therapy to what you bring during sessions, and is afraid of "diluting" the therapy if he lets other things in. IMO that's pretty wrong-headed, but some Ts do have these ideas-- fewer and fewer, probably-- but maybe they still linger.
I can't imagine a T not looking at my work-- I've never experienced that-- and it strikes me as very rigid and needing an explanation-- particularly as it's so important to you. Did he show interest in the story, even though he wasn't willing to read it?
by the way, congratulations for having your story published!
