In therapy today I told T I thought about her and my old T while on vacation. I told her I almost purchased something for her and old T as I saw something I think they both would have liked. My T smiled and said "thank you for thinking of me and nice to think of your old T but I'm glad you didn't because I can't accept gifts". I told her I didn't get anything because I felt a little silly about it and realized it wasn't my adult self wanting to do that. She then asked me if it felt like the 6yr old girl and I told her yes and she thought it was sweet and thanked me again.
She then asked me if I thought I put a lot of importance on therapists in my life. I told her no I don't think so?
Anyone else have this question asked of them?
