I prepare for session by writing down what I definitely want to talk about. I make sure I don't have anything else scheduled after, so I have the time to process what we talked about, to self soothe, to cry, to go for a walk and clear my mind. Also, I write everything I can remember from session in my journal.

Nine out of ten times, I email my T after one or more days. It helps me process too. I write thoughts and insights that have come to me and sometimes to mention things I forget to talk about.
