Discussion about therapy.
I just want to open a discussion thread about my somewhat odd relationship with my therapist.
After complimenting me on numerous occasions about my personal appearance such as " you're sexy" "sex on a stick" and "you're attractive". This only makes me want to be even more attractive for the doctor.
Whilst we were working together in the "accidentally" touched my hand - this is something he has been careful never to do before, even though we have been in the same position before.
He knows how I feel about being "let go" and the anxiety and shock it sends me in, and I feel like he is using this to control me. He frequently invites me " to walk out the door" and" stop coming to therapy".
I got particularly upset in the last session, when I complained about mentions of childhood sexual molestation and his response was "you're sex on a stick and you can't talk about sex" I was upset because I feel that childhood abuse and adult expression of sexuality are two very different things.
Please let me know your thoughts. Also, please do not suggest |I quit this therapist asap...i simply cannot. he has hold over me like nothing else. Whatever he suggests I do outside the therapeutic setting, I do like a person on auto pilot.
I think it's a reached a point where I have lost my autonomy in the relationship.
This summer he told " when I take you, you won't even know it".
He also has a clever way of using language, which gives him the upper hand and I feel like he knows exactly what he he doing and is playing me like a puppet on a string.
