Allowing people to help you is, more specifically a T, takes time. It is like trust. How to allow the T in? Well my guess is you would have to share something...share a very scary something or share a feeling or feelings. Perhaps talk about wanting to connect to T and let T in but you are clueless as to how to do it. Talk about feeling you do not deserve the time T is giving you. T knows you do not feel worthy of living or something along those lines. However, if you talk with T about trying to connect with T perhaps you both will discover a way that works. Writing in a journal works for some people, drawing works for some, while others prefer collages. You might even try telling a story that you make up out of seven words chosen by your T. The story has to be about something that happened to you personally, but the story could be about an animal, a boy if you are a girl, or a girl if you are a boy. It could even be about a monster or an old person...but the story has to be about something that happened to you in your life. This method with the seven word story is how i started with my new T. We did it as homework for the first couple sessions. Maybe your T has some other methods to try to help you connect.
