I honestly think he wants to know what you are getting out of the sessions & if you think they are helping. They can only see it from their side & don't actually know what's going on inside of your mind unless you are willing to really open up & express the truth.....so yes, I think he is very interested to see what you feel you are getting out of the sessions.

I know with the psychologist I was seeing in California, looking back at it, I was getting nothing out of the sessions.....I realize now that he wasn't challenging my thinking.....he was just sitting there listening to me chatter away & anything I said was ok. I have honestly found for me that there are other ways of thinking & since my thinking isn't working or I wouldn't be in therapy in the first place, then those thought processes need to be questioned & possibly redirected.....not making me think differently, maybe just in a different way that would work better for me. I wasn't getting anything out of the sessions & it would have been good for him to know that.....so the fact that your therapist is asking for input is a very positive situation.
