I think your therapist is wise. Giving you a narrative that you can find something that speaks to you emotionally and intellectually will mold thought, form ideas, and most importantly, move you.
I searched high and low for something that would speak to me. I read The Center Cannot Hold and that made me feel like I was not alone. Goethe's Faust, made me feel like moving on, letting the past be past, that this is just a mental thought, a mental prison that I just need to walk out of as if it were merely a door metaphorically, and to do that I talked, and talked, and read and read.
I with you well JunkDNA
