I think maybe it is the terminology that is confusing me. I am quite literal I guess and the "Inner child" to me means there is some small person hiding inside of me that is separate from me and if that is the case, how do I know she is me? And come to think of that, who am I ? Is there a "me"?

I hated who I was when I was young and fought hard to be someone different, I am assuming that T is wanting me to revisit that time, but in the present. Sometimes I do get a sudden change in perception, for example I may suddenly go from feeling confident to anxious - is this the inner child?

I do feel that I need to understand it more before doing what T wants, so that it is less frightening and makes sense to me.
