I recenly sought out a new therapist. I went to her with every intention to be honest with her and that is what I am doing. I am not worried about or interested in her family. As I was my previous therapist. I don't care what her impression of me is. I am sure she has seen worse. I don't care if she likes or loves me. She is there to to help me and I have learned that she can do that without putting her personal feelings into that. My old therapist and I pretty much called it quits because I believe we knew too much about each other. We never got to the "point". I worried to much about his responses and his opinions. I hopefully will never make that mistake again. I don't think friendship is a necessity in a therapist client relationship. Trust is. If you trust someone and feel safe with them then this is all that it should take to make you open up and discuss everything you need too.

Good Luck.
