That's so great you had a good, deep, non-painful session Sunrise! I love the "when you said --- I felt ---" reminders and looking back. They can help in the moment but also remind one of where they have been and how far they've come. I saw my t for 9 years and then we terminated and I didn't see her again for 9 more years and it was so nice when we'd talk about "the first time you said/did. . ." and I'd understand what I hadn't at the time and would feel warm and better connected to T in the present. I really would love it when she'd say, "you should have said something!" (when we were talking about how/why I wouldn't talk) and I wouldn't feel bad, since it was in the past, just more connected in the present. I love the fluidity of therapy, me and my t, all of it :-)
