I understand what you mean, a T shouldnīt begin "telling stories" about themselves. I mean more of telling about their struggles that has some kind of connection to the clients own problems.

I know some clients donīt want to know about such things but for me personally I think a T sharing some bit of their own personal story can strenghten the relationship and that it may be a bit comforting.

Thanks for this!
