In my experience, people who #rationalize their crappy behavior by spinning it as "#MyTruth" typically aren't all that interested in hearing anyone else's "truth." Especially if #YourTruth or #TheTruth contradicts #TheirTruth.

The anger is instructive, it's good #countertransference data, but it's better to sit on that in the moment and work on it in #supervision than to let it color what I say to the patient, even if in the moment I can #rationalize my way to believing that it will be "important for them to hear" or whatever
