Asking for Ts opinion

I've got a big decision to make, in a way I've already made it but am feeling scared of the consequences.

I want to know what my t thinks. My t will often help me out in making small decisions, and sometimes tells me what she thinks (though sometimes she appears to be quite careful of what's said). I really want to know her opinion on, and perspective of, the final decision that I'm about to make.

I know a lot of ts won't give advice or even share their thoughts with clients. So I'm nervous asking her directly. I'm not sure that she will answer, but I don't feel I can make this decision alone. We've talked about it, but that was mostly her getting me to consider the possible outcomes and effect of my decision by asking me questions.

Im not sure whether I'll even like her answer, and it may make things worse not better for me.

Have you ever asked your t for their opinion on a huge decision you have to make? Did it help or hinder you?

I've asked my T's opinion on many occasions, and she's given it to me.

Talk to her about it. Even if she doesn't straight out give her opinion, she'll help you process the risks of the decision you're about to make, vs the gain, and maybe help you feel better about your decision.

I've asked for t's opinions on big decisions, and they have all only discussed the topic further, often without giving me their choice. a lot of the times, I just needed to talk it out further. Sometimes it helps to explain things out loud with another person (even if it's more than once). A few times, t's have "strongly suggested" a particular choice, but made sure to emphasize that ultimately the decision was mine (like my recent iop experiment).
you can always ask her. If she doesn't give you her opinion, at least you can hash it out some more with her as a sounding board.

Yes I ask opinions sometimes. She sometimes is evasive with her answers and sometimes not. I don't ask about major decisions though, usually just smaller things. I am afraid to be influenced too much

I have not because I don't know why I would care what the woman thinks - but she does like to give opinions.
I would think it not unreasonable to ask if you think the therapist could be useful in the decision making process.

No I've never asked her opinion.

I've asked mine several times for his opinion and he answers my questions. It's really helped me because his thinking is more logical while I'm more emotional.

I think I will ask her, I'm just not sure if she will respond. But I'll never know if I don't try.

Mine just talk me through the pros and cons of decisions, the timing, and if it's good for me or not.

My experience has been like Iheartjaques mostly. When I arrived at a big decision we'd discussed a long time, she said she was glad for me. For small things like should I try X or Y for recreation, definitely she'll say "I did Y and like it. You might too." Don't know if that counts as an opinion but given how reserved she can be it sounds like one --- in a positive way.
