It has never been a fantasy of mine either and I always figured most people in the field go into psychology due to their own experiences. So I kind of assume most Ts are as messed up as anyone else. My T friends have some big issues in their lives so there is always a lot of stress. They are highly professional however, so those issues don't go anywhere near the therapy office. If my T were crying in her office I would prefer she take care of herself and have the receptionist reschedule me. I wouldn't want to see my T sobbing in the office and I doubt she'd ever let me. It's not that I don't care about them, but I don't really want to know much about my T or pdoc's personal problems unless it would of help to me.
