Yes, that may also play into it, I had forgotten about that. T has always been cautious talking to me about God/faith/religion and I am not sure why. He relaxed a little after one session where he asked me to pick something from his office to represent my “higher power”. I looked around and didn’t see anything so asked if I could make something more fitting and bring it to the next session. We spent a long time talking about what I ended up bringing in and he has asked me to explain it to him again a few times (I left it in his office for me to use later but also for other clients). But my expression of faith/religion does seem to puzzle him. I know he comes from a more strict background than mine and while he has become much more relaxed than how he was raised he can still be pretty traditional. I am, well, out there lol.
