granite, I keep a journal for many things, and often write in it about therapy. It helps me "figure things out." No, I don't share it with my T. I have never shared any diaries or journals with anyone in my life. I consider what I write in a journal to be private. If my T asked me if he could read my journal, I would say no, but invite him to ask me anything he was curious about. I sometimes wish my T would ask me more questions (would take the weight off me!), so if he wanted to read my journal, I would interpret that to mean he had questions for me. He's a big boy, so he can just plain ask me his questions!

granite, I think it is great that your T wants to know more about you. Maybe you can invite her to ask you what she wants to know instead of showing her your journal. But if you do invite her, you have to be prepared to answer....
