If you are going to give it to her I would give the original copy
She doesn't say why. She asked "would you like to leave the letter here with me?" once. I told her there were things I hadn't gotten to yet, so I should wait. My guess is that she knows from experience that I say more in my letters than I do out loud. I try to find the perfect way to phrase things all the time in therapy. Sometimes this makes me speak with a lot of pauses. So perhaps she wanted to see my unedited thoughts. At the same time, sometimes I would still rather have the experience of getting it out verbally than having her read it, depending on what I wrote.

Why did you ask? Did you find it strange that she wanted it?
