It's asked why would anyone want someone to come with them to see their therapist. For me, there were a few reasons. I haven't thought about those reasons much but I wanted my gf and my T to meet each other. I talk about my T a lot to my gf and likewise about my gf to my T. I love them both and thought it would be great if they could meet each other.

I try to be as honest and authentic as possible with my gf so we try not to have any secrets. We practice as well as we can what we each learn in therapy.

I have also met her therapist and it was great. The few times we've done this, we use the opportunity to talk about some difficult stuff going on between the two of us. So maybe it could be considered a short form of couples counseling.

She's only come twice with me to my T and I've visited her T with her 4 times. Each session has been very pleasant and very useful.
