I've never had a blank slate T, so I can't really know how I'd react. I understand the theory that supports it, and it makes sense to me. But I think for those of us whose difficulties center on attachment, relationship, or trauma, an absolute blank slate approach is probably too alienating to inspire a trusting alliance. The pure blank slate approach was designed predominantly to address neurosis. My T was circumspect about info he shared, and yet worked within a psychoanalytically influenced modality, so it doesn't have to be absolute.
