Thanks. I am trying to reply to each post, but it seems to go to the bottom of the page. But I appreciate everyone's input.

Truthfully, I have been holding back because this is new to me and I am embarrassed and uncertain if I should really reveal all of my past traumas and betrayals. I have so many! I feel weak and vulnerable right now. I feel somewhat ashamed that I even need therapy, but then again, I've always felt I needed therapy and I'm missing too much of my life trying to handle things on my own. I just want to make sure that I won't be judged and get a biased assesment. I wrote up a list of what I wanted to bring up with her in my session and I chickened out because it was just so embarrasing. But thanks to everyone here who responded and gave me some idea of what to expect and how I can make the most of my time in T.

BTW, my therapist is a student at a local university who is working closely with a licensed therapist. I am getting my T at a discounted rate and if there is anything she feels she can't handle, she'll refer to her professor to get any advice on how to handle the situation. I feel she is doing a good job so far, it's only been 2 sessions, but I will definitely let my self get more personal so I can work through these past experiences and get better. Once again, Thank you all, and I will let you know how I'm doing.
