Yes.

I have Asperger's Syndrome. It is important my therapist (psychiatrist) recognize this, because I think and experience the world differently than most people. Therapy would be pointless if my cognitive style isn't acknowledged.

My problems with communication and obsessiveness can easily be misunderstood as stubbornness. This can be tiring for a therapist and lead to unnecessary difficulties in therapy and even misdiagnosis. Understanding how I think can prevent this from happening.
Thanks for this!
