She only tells me anecdotes about other clients when she thinks it will help me, or clarify a point she is making. She only says what's necessary. She thought one story she told me would help, but it has scared the hell out of me. I don't think she meant for me to spend three hours after the session crying. I will probably bring it up today at session.
She does disclose more about herself than about her other clients. The T and I share a lot of similarities. I probably wouldn't have opened up to her as quickly without the disclosures. I wonder if there is a little bit of counter transference going on sometimes, but I don't think it's causing a problem. My T wouldn't have the reputation she does if she was making it all about her needs LOL.
That being said....I really wish she would talk more! Then I can just listen to her talking instead of dealing with the icky stuff inside my head

But she knows when I am just trying to avoid the subject, and then I end up talking. GRRRR
