Ooooh yes.
I bring a lot of stuff from Babble to therapy, stuff that doesn't necessarily have to do with me. But when I first started doing it, he got so still and so obviously careful. I was positive he was steeling himself to hear something. The good news is that I don't think it was personal. I think it's just a tricky therapy topic and even the best therapists are on their best therapeutic behavior over it. So it wasn't like he was steeling himself for you to hit him with something unpleasant. It was probably more that he was gathering himself to be the best therapist he could be. Or at least that's always how I see it.
