This is great insight into “venting”. I always just assumed they were looking for advice. My advice just seemed to make them mad. Now finally I understand why!

I’m very glad it was helpful! I know what you mean, people often come to therapy wanting “advice” and then they don’t like it/don’t take it when it’s offered. :)
