Something has come up numerous times with my T that we haven't fully discussed: What I wish I could have from the therapeutic relationship. What it would look like for me. In a discussion today on how we need to talk about that in the future, he said he was curious as to how others would answer that.
So, I'm curious: What would your ideal therapeutic relationship look like? This could include anything: How often you meet, what outside contact is allowed, whether any sort of touch is allowed in sessions, length of sessions, how much or little they share with you, whether you only meet in the office/online, etc.
I'll answer at some point, too!
