Sounds like a great idea to talk it over with your T. I can relate.
Prolonged exposure is an option we have discussed to address the historic trauma. It scares me, and involves a lot of homework and looking at the specifics right? I think you are very courageous sweepy, and can completely understand eeding to feel a closeness with your T before going there. Good luck
elliemay, prolonged exposure is one of the techniques recommended for trauma work, that, EMDR, ACT and others of course.
