Thanks a lot for replying! Although she did say it's for new patients she practiced it with me for about 2 years. It was a fantastic technique those questions! She would ask me all sorts of questions all focused around the problem area. They dug deeper and deeper and helped me understand my problems.
I feel that it's some kind of a psychotherapy technique and not just questions for new clients like she said. If it were then there's no reason why she would continue using it for 2 years. Her questions helped me a great deal with fearful situations even outside of her clinic. They all decrease the fear. They're definitely some kind of logic-related technique.

Oh is that true? Is it something known among counselors that clients can go on a break and come back again? I would love to meet her again and see how much I can improve with her. I started facing my fears within months of meeting her. She filled up my life with tremendous energy. But I think she's probably angry with me because I have so many issues.and that's why she stopped asking me questions. Although when I asked her she denied it.
