Transparency

 Transparency and therapy can be tricky to understand.  There are many therapists who do not say anything aloud about their identity.  Historically, the pioneers of therapists were very strict about not answering personal questions, and wanting to be a tabula rasa, or blank slate for clients to project upon.     As therapy has evolved over time, many theories of therapy have become more flexible when it comes to being transparent.  Social Constructivist thought indicates that being truly neutral is impossible.  That it is better to be self-aware, and work through any bias's that arise as a therapist.  The therapists who adopt this philosophy are considered postmodern.

If there is something that tugs your curiosity, it might be worth exploring... #2.) A lot of folks feel stuck with determining what rejection is "real" (validated) and what is "perceived" (a response that is considered out of prooportion by most people). The language can be confusing for feeling sane, acceptable, etc. The question came up, "Does it matter if rejection is real or perceived?" This could be a discussion in itself.
