There isn't much that I don't tell my therapist.
He tries really hard to be totally neutral in his dress, his mannerisms, and his general demeanor during our sessions.
Every now and then his face will scrunch up or he will throw his head back and I ask him to tell me what he his thinking. He pulls his socks up when something piques his interest, although I called him on that a long time ago. He doesn't do it as much now.
He also stammers sometimes which just drives me craaaazy, but I've never mentioned that to him. I feel like just yelling "just spit it out". He is especially bad about this on the phone.
As far as the big things, I am completely honest. I think he really can't help me very much unless I let him know what going on in my head. So I try to do that to the best of my ability. Sometimes I just don't have the words though.
Seldom.
