She admitted it was insensitive of her and she was sorry i'd been carrying around this hurt for so long. She also told me that she had not been trying to push me away. She thinks it's important when we can share connection in a session.

Peaches, I wish there was some way for you to accept your T's apology.
She said she was sorry and acknowledged that she had been insensitive. It is unfortunate she didn't respond soon after the email, but that's past and can't be changed.
I bet she wishes she could go back and do things differently. It sounds like she has tried to make it right with you. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive her.

Peaches, there have been times when I get "stuck" on something. It is awful, and so hard to see a way to move out of that. Since I have known my T, he suggests EMDR for those "stuck" times. He says the EMDR helps shake the memory free and allows me to continue processing it. I wonder if your T has a way to help you get unstuck?
