I thought that not saying happy birthday was some sort of therapist thing too! Whenever I’ve casually mentioned my birthday, none of my Ts have ever said happy birthday. Almost like if they said it they would be imposing their own view of birthdays onto the client? I always thought it was kinda strange since like you said, if it was a friend or really anyone else, they’d just say it casually.
