Great, suzzie! Sounds like you DO know what brought you to counseling, but you just can't say! Now, that makes perfect sense to me. But I bet it is really hard for your T to understand, without knowing what is going on. So maybe something like, "Well, before I can tell you what brings me here really, I have to feel comfortable. So for now, can it be, I'm learning to feel comfortable in therapy?" This would probably help your T help you, and give you a goal to work on. It sounds like your T feels more comfortable with goals. Give her this one, and she will probably relax and know what to do, instead of pushing you so hard to come up with goals. What do you think?
