Therapy is all a process of them getting to know us & us getting to know them......as with any relationship.

Your emotions are what you are feeling....not right or wrong....they just are & are a signal that you have a need that needs to be dealt with. Figuring out how to deal with it appropriately is what therapy is all about. Doesn't mean that how you dealt with it isn't appropriate, but working through it with your T will also help her understand you & be better able to help you work through your issues in the future.

Sounds like your T thinks/feels that you are farther along in your therapy than you actually may be & then again, sometimes we regress, then we can grow from there because sometimes there is a need to go back & process issues/feelings/emotions from the past that come up again in our life. Therapy isn't exactly a ladder that we continually climb & once we take a step up, it's in the past......life isn't like that....just as it isn't when we are growing up......we continually have to work on things & feelings & understanding even as we are growing up.....therapy isn't any different. As a matter of fact, that's what DBT therapy is all about, learning skills & practicing, practicing, practicing & learning, relearning & relearning the skills until there is a real understanding & the ability to put the skills into practice automatically (the ultimate goal of DBT).
