A comment on Pinksoil's marriage thread made me think.
I completely understand why a therapist would not want to see both a husband and a wife for individual therapy (not marriage counseling) - because of all the privacy and trust issues that it would create.
But it makes me wonder. I am sure there are things I do that I don't really realize, and that I wouldn't necessarily bring up with a therapist. Things that my husband, or other close people, may notice about me, but I don't notice.
So...that just makes me wonder. Is it ever good to get the other point of view? Would it help a therapist figure out your issues better? Sometimes we aren't so great at self-reporting everything correctly.
Just...wondering.
I'm still really early in therapy so no I don't really know the whole system yet.
