In reply to does this many anyone uncomfortable?, posted by wishingstar on June 10, 2007, at 10:53:22
I can't speak for anyone else, but it definitely does NOT make me uncomfortable. I get the sense that most of us have probably never had experience with a therapist in your particular capacity, but I still like seeing a little of the therapy experience from the other side. Plus, it shows you really care about what you are doing, and that you want to do the best you possibly can. Sometimes, after reading about your situation, I even realize things about my own therapy relationship that I might not have otherwise. So, please feel free to keep posting about it.
I have a question for you, though. I don't mean this to imply that you are not qualified to do your job or anything like that, so please don't be offended. How does being in therapy yourself affect you when you are working? Are you able to completely block out your own issues and focus entirely on the client?
I'm sorry if that came out wrong. You don't have to answer any of it. Again, please don't be offended, I'm just curious about that aspect of therapy.
