Hey. I wonder about my therapist too. But... I don't ask him. And when he tells me stuff I feel kind of icky about it. Like I would rather not know.
He told me his wife was pregnant (to explain that he would be taking a month off when she delivered). He told me that he would take a week off every school holidays so I figure he has school age kids too.
I googled him... And found that he attends a local church and leads prayers there sometimes. And that his wife had a girl.
None of that is stuff that I really wanted to know.
His marital status.
About his kids.
His religious beliefs.
I wonder about other stuff, though. About how old he is. About what kinds of problems he has. I think I get some idea of what kinds of vulnerabilities he has by way of his interactions with me. I wonder what his childhood was like. I wonder why he got interested in psychiatry and in psychotherapy in particular.
Will I ask him any of that? Maybe...
I think I found his wife online trying to sell a dog kennel too but I'm not sure...
