I do not know anything about my therapist's drinking habits. If I had to guess, though, I'd say she only drinks socially or rarely and that she's sober 100% of the time. Of course, I could be very wrong. I don't imagine this is something we'd ever discuss and I would never ask her about it. I just wouldn't. It has nothing to do with my own therapy so I would feel like I was crossing a boundary if I asked.

Like Myrto said:"How do people even know this about their therapist? I have to say I'm always astounded whenever someone here mentions that they know what their T experienced in life (mental illness, divorce, etc.). None of the therapists I have seen have ever mentioned the harships they faced in life..." This is true for me as well. It even astounds me when people mention they know their T's birthday. My T discloses extremely little information and many sessions nothing at all. I'd like to know more about her but I can't see that happening.
