I just responded in
another thread to something else Dani had written on this subject, and I was wondering if anything I wrote there might ring any bells for Xtree.
I do like what
treehouse said a couple of posts ago:

Probably the best thing that happened in my therapy to move things forward and get me to start talking was when T pointed out to me that sometimes I seemed like I was going to say something and then he could SEE me change my mind and either not talk or move in a totally different direction. He asked if I could feel that moment when I decide not to talk (I could). And he asked if when I felt like that, I could "try something different" (one of his favorite phrases) and stay with what I was going to say, even just for a word or two...

I suspect that if either of my Ts (or, especially, my non-T advisors) had been that flexible, resourceful and willing, therapy and a few other conversations would have gone a lot more smoothly for me.
