Wow, that's really impressive that he used those specific phrases! Shows he's really paying attention (and probably has a really good memory). Current T seems pretty good at remembering things and keeping people/events I've mentioned straight. Though there was one time early on that we remembered a conversation differently regarding e-mail that led to a conflict (that was quickly resolved). But that was him misremembering what he said, not a fact I shared. He has only taken notes in 2 sessions--the first one and the one where I was giving him a history of my alcohol use (and he asked if he could take notes).

MC is generally good at it--and he's never taken notes during session and often will grab his next client when he walks us out, so I think he just has a really good memory. And ex-T was quite good (aside from occasionally misremembering what she said)--she kept the various people in my life straight for the most part (occasionally clarifying)--hope I have an equally good memory at 70! She did write a couple notes each session though.

None of them have used such specific details as yours, I don't think though--that's particularly impressive!
