I didn't have a very good session with T today. It was our first session back after a long winter break and it was like she forgot about everything we had talked about the session before. Today, she just rambled on and on about mindfulness and I mostly sat and listened and nodded.
Now, I don't mind listening a fair amount, but it would have been more helpful today to talk more about how I have been feeling.
She must have realized at the end how much she had talked, because she said, "If you ever feel like I'm talking too much, just tell me to shut up!" But I don't want to tell T to shut up!
Is there a gentle way I can let my T know that I'd like to talk about something else or that she is rambling about something that isn't helpful?
