How!? What would the therapist do

Without going into all my issues, many of my problems correlate to specific relationships/people in my life. Anytime I’d start discussing those issues, I’d speak for a minute or two, then she’d talk for 10+ minutes about how her issues with (insert whomever here) caused xyz for her.

She also over shared. Horribly. I knew that she was a swinger, on her second marriage, and that her drug addicted brother was constantly in & out of prison.

Edit to add: she’d always, always elaborate in excessive detail how awful her “similar” experiences were compared to mine.
