We do not talk about it like: okay, let's talk about our relationship
However, we do talk about it more or less directly at (almost?) every session. As we work together for just few months, we do have some misunderstandings so we still have to clarify many things. Actually I am not sure when we talked about the "real" problem last time, instead we talk about here and now (feelings during the session, communication etc.). I guess, such talks are very important in a certain type of therapy but I agree that it might not work for everyone and at the beginning it actually irritated me as I found it as a simple waste of time...
