I didn't like CBT, either.
It felt too 'canned' to me. It felt like people were too quick to pay 'name the fallacy' and stomping on them in a way that... Shut me down. So I wouldn't / couldn't talk to them openly and honestly about my feelings anymore.
I would have been weirded out if my therapist googled anyone in my life, too. Really very.
Only sense I can make of it, I suppose, is one of curiosity. In the sense of you hear someone talking about a person, a bit, and you only have what they say to go on. Kind of wanting to have a little independent information so as to be a bit more... I don't know. Make up ones own mind a bit. If that makes sense.
Like meeting someones other half.
But I would have been unplesantly suprised at hearing that. I understand your not being happy about it.
Good to hear that things seem to be going well since, though. Yeah. I don't think any therapist is perfect.
