I sorta go with what Penny was saying--your therapist can probably handle just about any language you choose. But I think any language you choose, the content is just plain difficult. For me the difficult thing is confessing stuff like you can't "receive" or "relax"--definitely feels like I'm exposing the soft underbelly. UGH.
