My T goes to my church...and so I knew him from there...but, in session he talkes about his personal life a lot because (he just told me this past week) he wants his patients to realize that he is human and that he does make mistakes just like everyone else. IT is good for me to be able to hear about his private life..because I then look at him as a regualar person. My previous T ..I thought of as a "God". I didn't know ANYTHING about her accept for the fact that she had 3 dogs. And, to me she was a "God" she did nothing wrong..come to find out she did a heck of a lot wrong and I ended up finding a new therapist..(the one I have now..that lets me into the details of his life...(some ..not all)Just enough to let me know that he is human. :)
