One thing I know for sure - my t would never comment to Mrs. G about anything I said. She ever so rarely gives client examples ... not even once a year. Mrs. G and I share the same 'sister' so to speak. I think for T it would be interesting if we both spoke of s-i-l or her husband (who is an *ss) in similar or different terms. I'll never know.
I am surprised that you gave your t's number to someone you knew of ... that was huge of you. You could potentially ask coworker, "what did xxx think of my t?"
I agree about Group with individual t. My t does NOT do groups. But I have had similar feelings with my workout teacher. I go to his group class once a week - it's a brutal bootcamp style class - and it kicks my butt every week. I also work out with him privately (or with my daugher) twice a week. In the private sessions, he is kind and thoughtful and a wonderful listener ... very tuned in to my moods, very responsive. At the group class, I feel (often) ignored or overtly picked on ... I leave class with hurt feelings more often than not. Something is definitely stirred up ... some old feelings.
Feelings are complicated.
