I've been in therapy for well over a year. Not sure about my progress. It's physcotherapy with a little cbt.

I met her coincidentally at an art workshop. It was very awkward, as it was a day long class with only 9 people. She bearly acknowledged me.
At first I thought it was kinda funny. But it began to really stress me out.

She knows I love art. I teach and I really struggle with my own practice, as I know I'm crap. I've been blabbering on endlessly about this for over a year. And not once has she ever said, she like it, or had an interest in it. I get it supposed to be all about me, but really I hate this. And feel foolish that she never revealed an active interest in her own artistic endeavours. Like it was her little secret.

It was very uncomfortable. She avoided me today.and I ended up leaving early.
She is usually very closed and doesn't reveal anything about herself, which I accepted until now.

I'd prefer to take a break from therapy for a while. This has left a bad taste in my mouth. Because I feel she held back what's she's really thinking about having an interest.

I saw another therapist recently who was the opposite very open about her life, gave a ride home, and chatted about a party she was hosting at the weekend.
I preferred this, she still focused on me, but I felt it was more natural and not so lobsided.

Any thoughts...... please??
