Hi ABC1357,

I was in your shoes at one time,with so many issues I needed to address but not knowing where to start.

Something that helped me was making a numbered list of things I needed/wanted to talk about in sessions.I made the list and took it with me each week and crossed them off as I talked about them.

I read through the list before sessions( and added any new ones as needed).Whatever was on my mind the most or bothering me most was what I chose ahead of time to address.The times I felt completely overwhelmed with everything I would give my T the list and ask him to pick a number,and that's what I would talk about.

If there were things I knew I wouldn't be able to talk about,I wrote them out ahead of time,and I would turn my chair around and read them out loud so I didn't have to face my T.If that didn't work,I would just give my T what I had written and let him read it.

It worked pretty well for me,it might for you also.
