Nah. He'll say 'you know I'm not one to give advice' but he has given me advice once. When I asked him. And it wasn't really terribly directive... I said I wasn't sure how to best support my bf with respect to going to his fathers funeral or not going. And he said... That I should ask my bf what he wanted me to do ('cause I was trying to work it out and figured he wouldn't want me to go).

I guess he tries to help me lift judgments if I'm doing that. Maybe that is kind of directive. I guess it is a mutual goal, so thats ok.

Do you feel like your therapist is overly directive?
