She is willing to look at her own "stuff" to explain a point and make it feel normal. She is very thoughtful and kind. I think that is wonderful.
My T has been practicing for 30 years and I think she brings a lot of routine and repetition to my sessions. I am sure that is the foibles of experience.
I have been struggling in therapy lately so I am trying to stay away from T posts!

Well, if you find what works you stick with it. As long as your T is being genuine, the standardized techniques she brings to your session are only tools in which she can better communicate with you, not devalue you. My two cents.
