I've talked a bit about previous T's with my current T. I've found it to be helpful in getting my current T to understand what approaches work for me and what don't. I can tell her "T1 wanted me to do that, but she didn't support me once I tried it. I'm willing to try again, but I need support." I've told current T how T1 quit her practice right after I'd revealed some very difficult things to her, and it felt like a total rejection. I've told current T how T2 didn't understand me, or didn't seem to have the skills to help me. Mostly, I talk about previous T's in the context of why I react to my current T the way I do.
