I am a 'giver' and an easy foil in the clinical setting for borderlines. This has me thinking about the potential therapeutic outcomes of specificity in client /caregiver matching.
I thought that this would be studied, but could not find very much. These do not really answer your question but might be of interest. I have not accessed the full text of the first:

This is the full text and following, is the RG link:
Although these may touch on the subject, I have not found anything very relevant to your question. Perhaps the authors of papers on RG may be able to help you.
Very best wishes,
