Whenever I bring something in my therapist wants me to read it to her, but there have been a few times when I told her I just couldn't and asked her to read them. She agreed but clearly she would have rather had me read them to her.

And tkdgirl I don't think you are making a bigger deal out of this than necessary, I think there is more to those few words than you realize at this moment. Maybe you could talk to your therapist about why they are such a trigger for you.
