Just because it isn't a crisis, doesn't mean it's chatting either. You may not realize what lies beneath until you start at least skim the surface.
IMO therapy is not all drama, and it's not all trauma either. In fact, therapy can be quite boring at times.
I learned that therapy was going to be a marathon for me and not a sprint. A lot of that was my own doing of course, AND a lot of it was my therapist taking his time to before trying to "fix" me. He was a very thoughtful, intelligent, disciplined person.
