is religion an appropriate topic in therapy?

Posted by elizabeth31 on September 27, 2009, at 11:46:52

I was just wondering if its an appropriate question to ask a therapist what his/her religious beliefs are? I'm catholic and I often talk openly to my therapist about my faith-but don't of course ever talk about his opinions. I think I know he's Christian (I asked him once if his daughters were baptized and he said yes) I also do talk to my psychiatrist about religion because over the course of years he's told me he's jewish and he's been a really good resource to discuss differences in our beliefs in a non-threatening way (his wife was raised catholic)
I guess I'm just curious what the official boundaries are on this subject. Thanks everyone:)
