How would Perfect Client Interpret this?

Posted by DaisyM on November 25, 2003, at 12:19:34

I am feeling very conflicted right now, like somehow I missed something yesterday during Therapy -=- like I missed an opportunity of some sort.

During the session my Therapist asked, "is this really what you want to be talking about today? Does it feel important?" I said "yes, I guess. I didn't really have any big burning issue." That was pretty much a lie! I just didn't want to sound like a broken record again. Not that the issue we were talking about wasn't important. I just wasn't completely "present" yesterday. I had to keep pulling myself back to the conversation and out of the dialogue going on in my head.

I really wished I had asked him, "why did you ask that? What are you were thinking? What do you sense? What did YOU think we should be talking about? Are you worried about something? (I imagine him thinking of me melting down during this really busy week and him not having time to deal with me).

Has anyone ever gotten this question? How did you respond? Am I over reacting?

Have I said I hate this??!
