I think I totally get this feeling--like only being emotionally alive/seen within the time and space of therapy. But that power really is within you, and the relationship with your T is helping to make space for it, encouraging it, and helping to sustain it. There will come a time when you will feel that same aliveness in other areas and with other people in your life. And, paradoxically, the relationship with your T will feel more real, but in a different way.
