I say "it's not fair" in RL, or I used to a lot, as an adult. That's certainly childlike!
I have BPD and don't do DBT either. We do IFS and EMDR, and lots of other things like meditation, walking and talking, and art therapy.
I think regression in therapy, as ECHOES said, lets me be less inhibited and tell my T what I'm feeling. She helps me because she specifically wants me to feel that the "child" part is there so I can tell my T how "she" feels and what she needs from me and from my T.

Thanks for sharing Rainbow. I am VERY childlike I think too often in therapy it seems...
