For me a T:s caring is about the therapeutic holding and that she holds me even if I get mad at her or if I have a complaint about something that has happened in therapy. Itīs also that she reminds important things Iīve said and that she shows a bit of a vulnerability by sharing some brief things from her own life.

Lately though I'm been questioning whether she genuinely cares. We discussed it and she assures me she has no negative feelings towards me. She says she wouldn't do this kind of deep work if she didn't feel like our connection was strong enough.
Sometimes I feel like she doesn't really know me. I've brought material to sessions before and it's kind of been brushed over.
How in depth do you talk about your life with your t? How much do they know about you? How interested are they in your history and what's going on in your life?
