I agree that sometimes you just have to keep talking about it. I had a train-wreck session awhile ago, where we yelled at each other and it was awful, the following week we sorta-kinda talked about it briefly but really not, I tried to bury my feelings and pushed it away, and a couple of months later of course it resurfaced, we tried talking about it again, and that time I got really pissed and hung up on her (we do phone sessions) and only after THAT did we finally resolve it 3 days later when I called her and most humbly apologized for my part in the whole mess and we finally talked through it all. Although this rupture did strengthen our t relationship after it was over, I don't recommend this method. I wish I'd not swept it under the rug and had talked about it more after the initial train wreck session.
