This can bring about a self-fulfilling prophecy if the therapist is unaware of this unique dynamic and is unable to control their own counter-transference reaction to your suspicions and negative transference.
Thanks,

Interesting topic and I can see where this could happen. Especially with someone who is a CEN victim. Not being heard or validated can be very traumatic for some. Though I'm not sure most T's will pick up on that, so may be a good idea to discuss it with them.
