I put two answers. First one is for my T, who has told me a few things about her personal life, mostly basic stuff, but lately a few more things that give a window into her mind, like how she feels all this pressure to make Christmas perfect for her family, even though her (grown) kids are like, "Mom, it doesn't matter!"

Second one for marriage counselor, for whom I said "I know a huge amount about." He's shared lots of stuff from his past and present life, generally in relation to topics or issues we're talking about (though occasionally he uses analogies that...don't quite fit or are really a stretch). Like, I know he has an anxiety disorder, that his father was rather dismissive of him, that he had to get speech therapy as a kid (our daughter also gets it), times when he's been a less-than-perfect parent or husband, some stuff about his kids' struggles with various things (like anxiety) and how he handled them, some issues he had with dating when he was younger, stories from when he was a camp counselor, etc. etc.
