Yesterday, T asked if it was benefiting me to have sessions 2x/week or if we should go back to 1x/week. It seems he doesn't feel that I am making the most of my sessions. I know this as well.

I have an extremely difficult time initiating discussions about difficult topics in therapy. I emailed T and I told him this, and he responded by asking me what I feel would be helpful.

I am not sure. I'd like for him to help steer me in a direction, ANY direction. But he has insisted in the past that this needs to come from me. So, perhaps the problem I need to focus on is WHY I have trouble initiating discussions about difficult topics.

Can anyone relate? Have you talked to T about this? What ways does T help you get started in therapy?
