For me it seems important to be able to hear those positive things... to feel them and accept them... even if it needs time to settle and find it's place then.
We do share things with T that he indeed would not know outside of therapy. But the things we share are usually the ones we are afraid of or that hurt us, that we are afraid to show to others in fear of rejection. But if we can show it to T and get a positive response and are able to really feel and accept it then we have a chance to let other people see more of us as well... and get those positive responses outside of therapy...
