I certainly hope she doesn't have an issue with your wearing a mask, if it makes you feel more comfortable.


Regarding politics, I was very clear on what mine are, and I never came out and asked my T (well, I sort of hinted around, but he didn't take the bait). But during the last election (well, the months leading up to it), he ended up sharing his own views, which I think he only did because they were similar to mine. And I felt some relief knowing that. I can definitely understand a therapist not wanting to share. Though, in your case, I'd think it would be helpful if a T at least indicated that they're an LGBTQ ally.
