Hi kitty,
That is not uncommon for any therapist to not reveal anything about them, including their vacations, it is part of the code of ethics crap. You are right to check out a new therapist because it it important that you feel comfortable with therapy. I have one who is nice but her eyes start to close before the session is over, I know I probably can become boring, but that is still rude so I may be looking for a new one in the future. I miss the one from where I use to live, plus he was a psychologist, PhD, she's only a social worker and doesn't have much knowledge on the meds. like my former therapist did. It is hard for me to adjust to another person's technique also. I don't even want to say anything to her about her "sleepy" eyes cause she is a really nice person, she shares some of her past experiences with me which makes me feel like we are chatting not "analyzing," so that helps me not hold my hangups in, they gently come out and we approach them. I am just going to give a little more time. If you find you are not getting any positive feedback, etc. then you should"sample" some. Hope you will be feeling better soon, mentally and physically Take care of yourself.
