Thank you Zo. I do hear the support for me in your post. My therapist isn't one of the blank slate type therapists and has always acknowledged that there are two real people in the room. And I am so glad he felt free to discuss the issue because it was there whether he acknowledged it or not. My perceptions were accurate and I think it was really professional of him to admit it. And if he had been another type of therapist, I would have missed out on what I consider to be a truly beautiful encounter. I know that sounds kind of silly, but it accurately describes my thoughts. I am trying out the concept of total vulnerability elsewhere, as you might recognize from my posts on this board, and as is also true in my real life. I'm not expecting all the encounters to end up as well as the one with my therapist though. :)
