since I first posted my reply, I've read the other replies and I wanted to say that I think talking to her first is necessary. as the others have suggested.

She may be just giving you time to get comfortable, to learn to trust her, letting you go at your own pace until you do feel comfortable so you can "...talk to her about most things."

My T's great suggestion that I rely on is to "Begin where you are." Say anything that comes to mind. To talk about anything and everything that comes to mind. And to know that those things can be talked about again and again.

I think to begin where you are, feeling uncomfortable and having concerns about whether you and she are a good fit, is a wonderful place to start. It can help the relationship and the therapy so much.
