Yes, he states my name in email and in session. he does so more now as he has been more supportive, and like other said, to reinforce a point. On the supportive side, when there is an upcoming long absence for example he will state my name when emphasizing a strong point. That helps with object constancy.

I think it's also a therapy technique, though my T is object relations oriented. If your parents neglected you, never 'seen' you, didn't let you express yourself, you likely don't have a strong identity. And of course the degree is more significant with forms of DID. Reinforcing your name helps connect who you are or your true self or whatever you want to call it as your learn about yourself.

So overall it reinforces your sense of self you are developing or strengthening, helping you have a stronger identity.
