Yes, I think that is what I'm looking for. I've been seeing my T for about a year and all he sees is what I'm like for an hour a week, sitting on the same couch, staring at each other. I want him to understand more of me and I think it would be helpful for him to see a different side of me. I think we act differently when our T is asking questions and talking to us, rather than a friend who we are used to spending our "real life" with. I really hope it gives a positive spin on my therapy.
