I don't think you have to pick apart every trauma in minute detail. I wouldn't have been able to do that anyway as it was so long-term and recurring. So T's get the general overview mostly. On occasion I will suffer a very specific flashback about a very specific incident and that is when we might go into greater detail.
My T's never were big believers in rehashing trauma just for the sake of rehashing it, so if we did explore something, we had a very specific reason to do so, only explored as was needed for that particular purpose and moved on. They were very wary of the danger of retraumatization.

I agree, I am just stuck between the basics
only or nothing at all. T doesn't want to rehash or re-traumatize she is very careful of that. Thank you for sharing your thoughts it's helpful. I'm just new to all of this so I feel like I don't know what I'm doing or should be doing or sharing or what's right and what's wrong.
