Yes, my therapist has been in therapy for many years and he still is.
When I started therapy with him I was pretty new to this world, even though I was an undergrad student in psychology so had a little bit of knowledge in the field. Now I wouldn't see a therapist who hasn't been through their own therapy. It's not something I would ask right away, but in my experience, I can tell if someone has had their own therapy or is otherwise emotionally well and prepared for this profession or not.
