Did she offer to help you find some coping techniques for in between? Do you have a safe place to go when it gets to be too much?
She asked about when I feel the most anxious...
She further described how she wants me to "hold" the "inner child" when I am hurting.
I shared the CD, "Songs For The Inner Child" with her. She had never heard of it, so I let her borrow the CD. I played a bit of two songs to give her an example. I told her if things are rough I play the songs as I try to sleep.

She did say that when we plan on doing trauma work we can schedule a longer appointment so we can process more. I was glad to hear that.
