Wendylon, bring up what is bothering you when you're both calm and relaxed. For example, if he's running late, let him run late and deal with the consequences, and then bring up how that impacts you and the R at a future time.
Work on communicating more openly. Maybe you could've said you were thinking about offering the materials to the therapist bc you assumed he wasn't interested in keeping them, and he would've corrected you.
Praise the positive, verbally and physically. Let him feel good about himself when he's with you.
