Sunrise... My first T was like yours...and he was a Godsend to me really. He shared... and I appreciated it but sometimes I had to remind him that it was my hour...lol... For the bulk though... I really appreciated this as it allowed me to develop trust of him and of therapy in general. It provided it's function at the time.

Now this T has a different way of doing things (with some similarities... but not alot of self disclosure) and in my personal journey, this is what I need now. I like the idea of not knowing so much...now.

It again is a matter of what each individual wants and sometimes moreso what they need. Your needs are different at this time and you are learning to retrust, etc...
