Does your t by chance do sand play therapy? Mine does, as part of her practice. There have been times when I'd get to a session and absolutely just not have any words, did not want to talk. Those times I'd 'jump into the sand' as she'd say, and make a sand tray. Somehow, explaining the sand tray afterwards, would help me to find the words or she'd ask clarifying questions about what I'd created. Even during the time we did only phone sessions while she lived out of state, I had my own sand tray of sorts at home and I would make one and email her the picture and then we'd be able to talk about it. It's been very healing for me, the sand, even if I couldn't explain one in words. Sand play therapists have special training in interpreting the story told in the sand. Even where you place something in the sand tray means something, or so I understand. It's fascinating.

I have also typed things out, and then read them to her - or in some cases, handed her the page and asked her to read it. Once it was out there between us I was able to talk.

Early on, there were also times when I just didn't want to do anything but sit there across from her and just kind of well, for lack of a better word, bask in her acceptance of all of me.

I hope you are able to talk about it with your t, and come up with something that will help. I wish you the best!
