I hope Dr. Klein will comment on therapists confusing a client's talking about feelings and expectations for acting out itself -- as if talking directly is itself an unconscious acting out. It appears some therapists' practice includes interpreting what is not sexual as sexual, and interpreting what is sexual as acting out!
