Yeah, I actually think about how my T is outside of session as well, and I also think that my T is a wonderful, caring, kind person, altho I've never interacted with her outside of the therapeutice setting. But I also think that in order to be a therapist, you have to have a caring personality, and you have to want to help people. So maybe therapists (as a whole) are just caring, empathetic people, which is why they would want to go into that profession in the first place.
