I keep a list on my iPod and add to it as needed. I usually email at least part of the list to my T the day before my appointment.

Sometimes when I have problems that are difficult for me to bring up face-to-face, I use the email to introduce the subject. It's been very helpful.

Your T obviously is OK with you emailing her.

You may be surprised by the way talking about how you feel about this changes your therapeutic relationship. I've been seeing my T for a long time. Recently I started telling him when I don't get what he's saying or when I disagree. This is something I've always had a problem with. He's always been glad when I tell him these things. It's opened up things to a new level of therapy. It's helping me to be more willing to speak up with others.
Thanks for this!
