I think it is different for the client to bring it up rather than the therapist. I think it shows a different mindset from the therapist to ask for feedback rather than if the client does it anyway. Plus the therapist can still be wrong if they think they know without asking directly. The one I see gets it wrong constantly -and this is despite me telling her all the time. She simply does not pay attention. It has never been something any of the 4 I have for more than one appointment - has asked. And I don't believe their failure to do so was because we were already discussing it. I believe it is not a common practice amongst them.

And polls are hard to make please everyone.
