Self-disclosure of feelings in the here-and-now is an important part of psychoanalytic psychotherapy. When the therapists reaches the point in which he/she feels comfortable to do so, therapy has, in fact, reached a "beginning."

I think when it is the CLIENT who does this, is the beginning of good work.

Remember that Pinksoil has clearly already disclosed a lot of her own feelings (still amazed that you let him read your poetry, Pink!). So it's the reciprocation that's a new beginning in her work. Different phases of therapy...

I love it when my therapist discloses something toward me. I cherish it because I feel the connection is more real.
