Matt,
I'm not sure I totally understand the question. Are you assuming that most people feel connected and sure of themselves so that they can converse with others in a way that is easy and not self-conscious? If this is your premise, I think you are wrong. Most people are nervous and unsure of themselves in one setting or another. Some of us feel really comfortable with work stuff or problem solving, but bring feelings into the conversation and watch me run away. Other people can feel things with you and wouldn't dream of offering practical advise. And still others make small talk out of nothing and seem serene with themselves. I'm actually good with a crowd and have a much harder time in small groups.
It think we are all different and different at different times and with different people. What are you wishing your therapist would do with you?
