> Does anyone feel that certain topics they bring up are of more or less interest to their T's than others?
Sometimes I feel like I'm an incredible bore to my T. During some appointments I wonder why I'm even there.
> What about the content of each session-do you feel you have a lot of control over what is discussed or does your T steer you in other directions about things they want you to discuss?At the beginning of the session, she asks me if there is something specific that I want to talk about. So far there hasn't been. So, she recites a few of the topics we discussed at our last session and asks me about each one. Usually that leads into new things I want to talk about with her.
> i.e. there is never enough time.
Tell me about it! I am always slow getting started talking, but after I open up (about 15 minutes) I am talking non-stop. I love my T because she lets me go over 20 minutes sometimes if I'm on a roll. :)
