I know having this happen is frustrating. Talk to your therapist about this or even print ypur post off and give it to her. You will most likely find there is a reason why your therapist is taking care of today before taking care of the yesterdays. I know from having therapy on and off for over 20 years plus taking psych courses in college that therapists trained to work with various types of survivors be it physical, emptiona or sexual abuse they are trained to first take care of the immediate today problems and help with putting in place new coping tools. That way when the therapy does turn to the more emotional issued of abuse as children the person has those coping tools to use and their present problems won't get in the way of seeing what problems are from that past abuse versus the stress and problems of today. Basically in order to take care of the past the present has to be on track as much as possible.
