Right - agree - but it feels (to me anyway) more like, "so - how much good did our last session do you?"
And since three whole weeks usually pass before the next one, it's pretty much a given that either something happened that triggered me, or I will have just spiralled out all by myself. so the answer never seems to be " just fine, thank you" - not truthfully.
