I love this thread so hate to see it get buried on page 2.

Some more questions about Ts:

Does your therapist take notes during your sessions?
My T does not. I wonder, with so many clients, how he remembers stuff. Or maybe he doesn't? Or maybe he takes a few notes after I leave--do they often do this? My first T did take notes during the session and each time she would write something, I would think, what did I just say that is noteworthy?

Do you talk about your dreams with your therapist?
I do frequently and I am curious about how common this is. Sometimes I just share a dream briefly, and that leads to other stuff I have trouble bringing up directly. Other times, if it is a significant enough dream, we organize a whole session around the dream and its analysis, doing classic Gestalt dreamwork. I never talked about dreams with my first T. I sensed the current T would be open to that, so I just dove in one day with a really important dream and he was great.
