@drjacobsanthouse: This also isn’t the only reason a therapist will cry in therapy — just one of the most intentional reasons. #therapist #therapy #vulnerability #tears #emotional #feelings #crying #therapysessions
Yes, therapy is about the client. However, for me, showing emotion allows me to trust my T more... Does anyone else feel this way?

yep. I specialize in trauma therapy. I have shed a tear in session on occasion, and more often at night on my way home for more than one client.

Seeing my therapist react to what I’m saying helps me gauge what’s not “normal” from my childhood

so if clients don't cry, does that mean they aren't doing therapy right?

this made me so glad that I told my therapist that when people cry when I talk about my trauma, they are making my trauma about them

My therapist cried today when I was reading a letter I wrote to myself that mentioned him and our sessions and how much he helps me and how safe I feel.

Yep! I’m a therapist also, I tear up often but I don’t appologize or over explain because it’s not about me. But people need to see someone’s emotios

I think the most emotional time in therapy was when my therapist's eyes turned red and he tried very hard to not let a tear fall.

I told a sweet story about my godson last week and my therapist nearly cried. It was such a sweet human moment.

I tear up all the time in therapy, and will tell them that it’s about them… not me. Their stories matter and are meaningful… so of course it would❤️

My therapist shed a tear this last week because I took to heart what was talked about last session and enacted it

My friend said when her therapist cried when she processed her trauma, she stopped seeing her.

Tristan | Therapist :
Yeah definitely a fine line for sure as you described. Definitely not to the extreme because we don’t want our client feeling like they have to

I remember my first therapist cried once and I just didn’t understand why at the time. I can now but I was so confused

Manda :
My therapist doesn’t really react in anyway when I tell a trauma or when I cry. She says a few comforting words but that’s like it. I guess it’s weird

My therapist had a mental breakdown and I had to calm her down, pass her tissues, ask do you want any water?, and tell her breathe🥲
