Even my T who is a trauma T does not just come out and ask that type of question so bluntly!!! BIG warning bells ho off for me as a CSA survivor about a male asking for those details. My psych doc is a female and even she is tender with me when asking how my flashbacks are doing at night. She does not say "Well what exactly was the flashback?"
She will just ask me if I was able to get back to sleep ok with my meds. She sometimes asks me if everything is going ok with my trauma therapist. But to me, this is the right level of detail.
Sure, you can learn to draw boundaries with that idiot (to me anyone who is in this field and is that dang careless to ask that and cause so much damage to a client is a bufoon!)... But I think that therapy and doctor offices are supposed to be SAFE for a client. Practicing drawing boundries is good ... but one should not have to do so in that setting.
