I've been tempted to ask my therapist to do this for me lately, because sometimes I really just want to hear some reassuring words from her without the expense of an extra session or the risk of having a difficult conversation. For example, she did a guided grounding exercise with me the other day, maybe 5 or 10 minutes of working through muscle groups and breathing, or another time, she's read to me for a little while. I would love to have those types of things to replay, I am considering asking her if she'd mind me recording them while we have our phone sessions. (We do online therapy, so it's either chat or phone.)

She has already written to me as we do email sessions, and I definitely find it revealing and reassuring to be able to reread those sessions. I've also collected some of my favorite snippets from conversations and reread them from time to time.

So, yes it might seem weird, but I think it can be very helpful!
