I personally would have liked my Ts to express opinions more, whether they agreed with my views or not. I also like that in general from anyone who can share their views in a respectful manner - I will hear it and decide for myself if it is useful for me or not. I may think differently about this than many others but I don't think a Ts role is to support whatever the client wants - for me, there is no point in consulting with someone if they only mirror what I already know or do myself. What did you expect when you shared this with the T? Maybe telling the T directly what you expect/would like might produce a more satisfying response... I don't know.

As for the housing situation, there would be very few cases where I personally would encourage a financially capable person, who is nearly 30, to live with their parents or even roommates unless they really like those situations. I don't think that's a very good way to socialize for a healthy adult, it is not voluntary. Living with others can undeniably teach someone tolerance and cooperation but that's very different from choosing a few mates and socializing with them for fun and enrichment. I still remember very well the time when I fist moved out of my childhood home where I grew up with my parents - it was one of the greatest joys of my youth. And I had a very decent childhood home and parents, it wasn't like I finally escaped something oppressive or even too unpleasant. Much later, I chose to rent a room and have roommates for a short while only because I had to move out of an apartment suddenly and did not have enough time to look for a good place, and I remember thinking in that situation many times how it was beneficial because it forced me to have tolerance and adapt to others. In some ways, it was easier not having to maintain a whole household myself. But it was not pleasant by any means and it increased my anxiety. Again, it was a great relief when I found a nice place for myself and moved out of the roommate situation. I actually think living alone (vs. with parents or roommates) can improve one's social life because we can be completely free and comfortable to invite friends or whoever, whenever we want.
