I think my therpist is great, but it's hard to identify the qualities I like. The two things that amaze me most are:
- She can listen to me pour out what I think is a string of useless repetitive complaints, and remain truly interested, and find some meaningful theme in it all.
- She models two qualities I'd like to have-- self-acceptance and good ego strength. She just doesn't react to things defensively like me and everyone else I've ever known.
