Hopefull, I use to have imaginary meetings with my T in her office at a "board room" sort of affairs with other T's around (and sometimes other clients) and I'd tell everyone what was good about my therapy and what bad, etc. :-) I had other scenarios too.

In real time I looked for and brought my T four-leaf clovers, my grandmother (like your aunt) and I use to look for them together on the front lawn when I was little (about ages 3-6 or 7). My T was from another country and didn't have that 4-leaf clover "background" :-) so had no clue. LOL.

Can you share your fantasies with your T? Over time I started to notice when I'd go get my hair cut that getting my hair shampooed first, I was able to relax better than usual and "let" myself be "cared for" (enjoy having someone else wash my hair) and that was a really big breakthrough for me. You ought to try something like that, "be there" when you get your hair cut (I also managed to practice it at the dentist's! let them care for me there!!!).

Were I you I'd notice all the fantasies you have and see how they connect to your real life (like you remembered your aunt and how much you enjoyed that when you were little) and ways they can be fulfilled now and see how much you can share with your T. It's quite healthy and such things were very helpful to me in my therapy.
