Sister, i'm sorry you feel so bad right now. 3 weeks without T really sucks! When I read what you posted about your session i had a different reaction to what your T said. I was thinking it'd be really cool if my T wanted to take some time to review where we had been and where we'd want to go in the next year. It would be nice to hear what T thought was significant and what he/she remembers.
i don't think setting some goals is necessarily CBT. Other's may have more information on that, but I think even in other forms of therapy people set goals for themselves. A few months ago my T mentioned setting goals and I wasn't up for it at the time. It felt like to much pressure at the time, but I don't think she ment that once I had reached the goals that I would stop therapy it was more to help focus on things I wanted to work on or talk about.
Sorry about the confusion feelings. Were you able to talk to T about the memories that brought up when you called?
