No it doesn't sound stupid Jenifer. Everyone needs to be pointed in the right direction from time to time. One of the reasons I took the pictures of my house/nightmare project is that I didn't know where to go with the house part of this project next by taking the pictures in LL was able to see what I see in the nightmare and what I have done so far in the scale model house so she was able to ask me some questions and when I couldnt answer the questions I knew what I had to look for next when I have this nightmare and in my doing my relaxation stuff so that I could put the answers to her questions into the project somehow.

If you know what you want to accomplish your therapist regardless of if the therapist is an art class instructor will be able to help you.

there is a great book for artwork that I have done I think its called - managing ptsd through art or something like that. it is listed in my resource thread that is pinned to the top just after you click on dissociative disorders to get to the threads. its put out by SIDRAN. SKR and I had a great time doing that book and I branched off adding my own creative twists to the projects.
