I would not have said this that long ago, but I feel it now. I am a whole person, in the sense that there is no me in one place and another me in another. I'm not divided into the non-therapy and the therapy me.

For me the need to be seen and heard in and out of therapy is important. Not with everyone equally and at all times. But certainly in therapy, and I wonder how feeling seen and heard can be happening if the T does not know or experience the non-therapy you?
