No, I think you misunderstood. What I meant was why would T suggest I had that
specific part (Part B)? T and I know I have parts. We all have parts. Plus, T and I have done ego state therapy before so we have worked with several specific ego states. I'm just wondering why he thought I had that specific ego state--part B. As some have suggested here, maybe he is seeing things in me I don't. I definitely want to ask him about that. Maybe I do have that part but just couldn't access it at the time. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Thanks for that. I feel that way too. Knowing my T, I don't think he would want me to pretend or be inauthentic. That makes me think he either sees something in me I am not aware of or that he may think all people have this particular type of part. So maybe I'm aberrant for not having it. Wouldn't be the first time.
