What if T refers to it as such but you don't respond, knowing that ? Does she need to know it? Does she need to know that I am always on my guard, yes even in there, yes even with her, although most times I am able to get over it and do the work I came to do?
No ideas on how she could make it 'THE safe place' again. She has tried hard to get me to trust her again, and I really appreciate it, and I think we work together pretty well. It makes me feel bad when she refers to my safe place and nothing comes out of me, not even a nod.  |
I think you should definitely talk about it with your therapist. It is something that is bothering you, and it sounds like you have a good therapist, so I suspect she will know how to help you work through this.
