My T was talking about this last session, actually. How he's not just a blank slate sitting there. He was telling me that I need to know he cares about me and respects me (I was doubting this immensely and we had had some big transitions lately and a few little ruptures, so it was totally appropriate in context). And he said, "I'm not just a blank slate sitting there. I don't know if you believe in energy and stuff, but I sure do. And you're the recipient of my energy, it flows into you. You could come in here and take a nap and I think it would be helpful to you. And it's not something I mind at all [I constantly worry I'm a bother]". So yes, I think I know what you're talking about, and I do think it goes both ways, although I think I'm less aware of when I'm 'sending' energy to him.
