That sounds about right. My range of emotions with T had been very narrow and he had kept his “turned down low” to not scare me. He experimented with different emotional reactions to moves I would make and I was OK with it. I think his biggest goal was that he wanted me to see that I didn’t have to feel threatened in session. There isn’t some hidden agenda or motive, session can be about what ever I need, and they don’t have to be work all the time. I am not too sure how successful it was for that. The session that helped me with that was one just before he left for a week out of the office. T showed me pictures on his phone of one of his hobbies (part of why he would be out of the office). There were a couple photos with other family members and some silly stuff that he didn’t scroll by fast enough for me to not see. For me that session started to let me see him as human. Seeing T as human really changes the dynamic in a positive way and improved my trust in T.
