I also think that sometimes our therapists forget that while we seem grown-up and OK with the evolving relationship, there are parts of us that want them to forever remain careful about their disclosures.
My therapist told me that once, a long time ago, he had such a great vacation that he was truly reluctant to return to work. And in the context of what we were talking about, this was an appropriate disclosure - he might have even said, "only once" -- but since vacation is coming up (Aug) of course I'm now worrying about this.
I sometimes want to write a script for him to follow. But then he says the most amazing things and I think, "wow, who saw that coming?"
