I haven't found boundaries to really be much of an issue in therapy. For me, recognizing another person's boundaries is generally pretty easy to do, and I have pretty clear boundaries. I think my T's and I just have had a good read on each other that way so it just hasn't really come up.
I would describe my T's boundaries as clear, yet flexible when necessary. Mine are probably about the same. Maybe the fact that our boundaries are quite similar is why it just hasn't come up.
I would say my boundaries were practically non-existent when I was younger, but as I have aged they have become healthier as I have gained confidence and the ability to be assertive and proactive.
