Oh man...I got busted by the lurking MPT. Thanks...that was a "right on" excellent point. Some of these behaviors are so ingrained in us that it's almost impossible to see them and I even told my C to "kick my ass" if I do / say stuff like this.
Hopefully this board will augment my therapy enough so that I don't have to pay for sessions that my insurance won't cover.
