Past long-term T was super open about herself to the point where it became annoying; honestly, I really didn't care about the most recent book she read or about her kids. ED T I actually did like hearing about her kids and her life, but probably just because I had so much maternal transference with her. Past CBT T never told me anything about herself.
Current T is a pretty blank slate. The only thing she's told me about herself is her sexual orientation, and that she's married, and only because I asked about her ring. I was very happy she answered me without circling around it or asking why I wanted to know. I sometimes wish she would be more open with me, but her boundaries.
