my T has read children's books to me.we haven't played with glitter at all sound like a lot of fun.i think you should just try really hard to trust the process.i know i felt really awkward the first time i did different things with T.but it was so so much better then trying to talk.it just seems to connect us on a very different level.when i am willing to relax into it.

as far as her wanting to work with your inner child i couldn't tell you.i know that my T talked about working with the part of me that has been so severely traumatized(her words)that she isn't even allowed to speak at all.she wants that part of me to have a voice and be able to say what she thinks and feels.i don't think she has ever called it my inner child.
i know it is hard but maybe sometime you could ask her what she feels this will accomplish.do you feel way to uncomfortable doing these things with your T?
