When I covered this ground with my T, he did not deny his power in the relationship. However, he helped me to see mine. He pointed out the vulnerability of being a T. Namely, after investing a tremendous amount of time, energy and one's self in a client, that client could just walk away and never look back. He/she could ignore everything that was worked through together with the T. He implied that such occurrences can be traumatic for a T. It's a two-way street. We need each other.
