I dont know what style she is using , i will have to ask. also im not sure i can do this csa talk weekly. she is trying to get me to release anger in session therapeutically verbally in drawings or something like that.

When i mentioned the red I was just thinking about what I notice with my journaling and if I am doing some art work I pick up on my moods by the color of the pen I use or the colored pencils I use for my doodling. I can not draw worth anything but do creative lettering. My fav colors Teal, Purple and Pink show up when I am in a good mood. But when I am stressed the warmer colors show up and when angry Red is at the top. I use very fine point felt type pens and gel glitters for my journals and never the same pen for the next entry. (can you tell I am a pen addict ?)
I do not intentionally choose a color based on what I am trying to express though. I have just noticed that when I go back to read in a journal months later I can see the mood even before I read it. My handwriting changes too. LOL
I know you have a hard time with some specific words that you prefer not to use in regards to CSA. I have a few of my own so know where you are at there. This is just a suggestion so you can think about it and talk to you T if you ant to but would it be possible for you to give your T a list of words to use instead of the ones that upset you or go into more detail about if some words are OK for her to say but not expect you to use the word. As an example I can hear the F bomb word but it is not a word in my vocabulary. I know where the roots of the reason I do not use it are and was able to tell my T where they came from with out ever saying the word.
Anyway I think you are doing a great job and making progress with new T so once again YOU DID GOOD!
