I can see where you're coming from, confused_77. I've been in that position of hoping that T would start a conversation about something that I thought was blindingly obvious...but if your T is person-centred, as mine is...then it seems unlikely to me that she would start a conversation about this without your explicit consent.
Many times I have said things to my therapist about what I am hoping to accomplish, and she has asked me several times to verify that what I am asking for is what I actually want.
Obviously I don't know anything about your therapy or your therapist, but she may not wish to push her agenda on you.
