In thinking about it, I must say that I feel I'm lacking the courage to take steps to make my therapy more meaningful.

All of your advice is really great, and I wish I had the courage to step right in and figure out exactly what makes me comfortable. I just have a weird fear of.. well I'm not sure.. appearing strange. It probably just takes some time to get used to it.

There are some small things I'd love to tell my therapist like: I really hate sitting on a couch, especially since it doesn't face my T. I'd prefer a chair (or better yet the floor is nice too !). I'm sure it's not so bad after I mention it, but just summoning the courage to speak up. MEH! >.<' Maybe the first step is the hardest.
