Venus--seeing her house helped me realize that I have to do more work with my parts that still want to obsess about my T. My T knew from the start the problems I had with my former T about that; it's my main issue. So, I know it's not about my T. It helped me see that I have to really, really get to the bottom of what I want from my T that I know is transference. So it was helpful for those reasons.
I also felt more connected knowing what her house looks like and where she lives. I'm in the middle of working through these issues of what the parts of me didn't get when I was little. It's very important to me that having to go by her house happened. It's relevant to the work I'm doing though I'm not exactly sure. T doesn't want me to figure things out too much in this therapy. She just wants me to feel and tell her what my various parts feel. Maybe I'm not explaining well, but this is the crux of my therapy!
