Interesting. But then I wonder why I couldnīt as well just talk to myself? I donīt have the tools to steer myself in another direction, then I hadnīt been in therapy in the first place.
I donīt mean my T should argument with me but whatīs the use of therapy is she doesnīt have the techniques to work on the goals we have set? I now mean issues like "better self image", "less self critique" and so on. If she doesnīt actively uses tools or techniques, then Iīll just sit there by my own and reason with myself and she puts in some comments from time to time?
Iīm not striving for homework and that kind of tools, I mean reaching inner change.

It's good topic for discussion, I think.
