I'm a good client I guess. I pay my bill and keep my appointments and have a mutually respectful relationship with my therapist. More importantly, I work hard to take what we discuss in session and put it into action in my real life. I'm not resistant to most things we discuss and communicate openly with him. I wouldn't call myself "ideal" because I can become seriously ill which is very worrisome to him, but he would probably disagree that that diminishes his perception of me.
