Your family is not in therapy with you. You and your therapist are in therapy together. You need to be face-to-face talking to your therapist about your and her relationship.

When you talk about eye contact with your family members or others, it is "reporting" about the effects of therapy, it is not "doing therapy". Your T has no relationship with the others in your family, just you. A one-to-one relationship has to be conducted one-to-one.
