Kind of. I avoid talking about food with my long term therapist because when I have she annoys me. I avoid talking about sex stuff with my eating disorder therapist because I think it makes him uncomfortable (although he says it doesn't). I try to avoid swearing with the ED therapist too, but I'm not always successful.

I talk about relationships, self-esteem and trauma with both of them because those seem to be central to everything. It's kind of interesting to see how they each respond when I talk about the same thing to both of them. One thing I never do is play them against each other. I never say "so and so says." If I get pissed at one of them I try to address it directly with the one I'm annoyed at. Neither of them has asked me not to do that. It's just my own personal rule because one of my main goals is to get better at being assertive and direct.
