Now is a good opportunity to work on these things in therapy. I had to work on standing up for myself. Yeah, it is difficult to progress in therapy if you won't tell your T anything. You can work past these things, however. So these are the issues that you have mentioned here, 1) you can get pushed around easily, 2) you are fearful of bringing up anything with your therapist, and 3) you don't feel comfortable with your
T.
Your therapist can't know this stuff unless you tell her and if you tell her, she can help you to work on it.
