I have to say my instinctive response is yes, it's inappropriate. I just can't see any situation where it would be particularly necessary or relevant to therapy to point out how attractive you are. I suppose hugs may not necessarily be inappropriate, but in a context where you seem unsure of relationship boundaries, it seems unsettling. As for personal disclosure, it should always be only for the client's benefit. A T's ethics should be unremittingly high, otherwise the relationship could be damaging. I guess I would say trust your gut instinct? If you feel uncomfortable, maybe bring it up with him. And put your own protection first.
