Up until the licking it sounded just creative and inappropriate for a second session. I mean, I saw the point, but the whole tombstone thing was just unnecessary in my opinion (it could have gone with you just having your family members made out of plasticine and taking them out of the picture for a while - and even that would have been a LOT for a second session, in my opinion). But I do at least understand the point. By the way, is this existential psychotherapy? It would be more understanble if it is.
But licking yourself?!?! I mean. unless you somehow brought up licking as something meaningful to you, it seems so ... different ... for a thertapist, and for a new one especially so.
Sorry, I'm just feeling very surprised. I wonder, how is this approach working for you? Do you feel it is helpful to make new insights or is it too much? Is it a way for you to understand better or perhaps confusing?
