In reply to Too much disclosure is not a good thing, posted by lemonaide on October 16, 2008, at 20:44:47
From my experience in therapy and my training, I think it depends on the theraputic relationship. When a therapist is first learning about a client, I would say no, but it depends on the needs of the client. I think some of us do need disclosure because it shows us that the therapist cares and is empathatic. They think of us as a real individual. I do think there is a fine line due to transference and countertransference in therapy. NOW that is something I will put in a seperate post soon!!
