T's aren't our parents, our s.o., or our bff. It's a paid for relationship. They are required to listen and interpret for one hour sessions, and then refocus on another client the next hour. We are special in that our story, needs, and goals are unique, but our relationship with t is one sided. A true relationship requires that it be about both parties equally.

Ugh...I know. This is a big dilemma for me (as well as many others, I'm sure). Part of me soooo gets that it is professional, a business. But I feel like to really open up and trust, there needs to be a personal aspect to it. Sometimes the needy kid in me wishes she were my mom or friend, but this is outside of that, I think. I don't think being an only child helps this. I've never had multiple things to care about at the same time. I don't get that you can care about so many people. I've never had clients.
