When professional training groups struggle with personal vulnerability in Socratic practice

Our therapy training cohort practices Socratic dialogue as part of learning to work with clients, but we've hit this uncomfortable place where questioning each other's therapeutic assumptions feels too personal and we all started holding back. Now our practice sessions feel safe but useless, and we're not sure how to get back to real inquiry without damaging our relationships.
