I like you guys revealing about your ts. It puts a fresh perspective on it all, and somehow I'm seeking this knowledge to help, in part, guide me as well...

Talulah, I feel the same way. I am really enjoying this thread and learning a lot about the diversity of therapists and therapy experiences that are out there. Thanks, everyone, for sharing!

Umm, my t self discloses a lot too. I like it so far, it helps, I still fear the day I learn too much though.

I did have an experience where something he self disclosed to me really hit me hard. Whenever anything hits me hard, I don' t deal with it and have a hard time even feeling it. It took me a month or two to realize how I had been affected by it. I told him about it later and he immediately rushed to help and we had the best session. Everything's good now and I have a deeper understanding of him and what my own reaction says about my current situation. I just love my T.

allthegirls6, that is really intense, how you and your T share. It sounds very nurturing. Do you do that regularly or just in sessions when you are in deep need? I'm not sure if I could do that with my T or not because of the transference, which is already so strong as it is.

Another thing my T does: he sometimes uses terms of endearment with me. Not often, but occasionally they slip out. They really warm my heart.
