Maybe politely ask him to not share things like that anymore. I'm sure he would be ok with it.

IDK some people like big disclosures. I find it keeps me from discussing my issues. Like I know my other T's wife works for the federal government like mine and she is also out on furlough. I wont whine about financial issues because I know he is in a similar situation but worse as he has two young kids. So I sensor my own session.

Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
