WELL, as you know I continue to go to physical therapy now 20 1/2 years after my injury.

I can't think about it before I go, or I would never get there. I can't think about what is being done, or I would leave. I surely can't think about having to do it (ref the accident) or I would totally freak out.
Yes, I fully understand. I think the PT should too? I mean, they study this stuff on an ongoing basis, and helping us heal emotionally from any trauma that has physical results, is part of physical therapy.
