Sometimes I can “visualize” something and I’m not really seeing it. I am “feel” seeing it. It’s an internal thing that I can’t really put words to. I have also experienced this on my own and with my counselor’s leading.

These have come on their own or “softly” in session. By softly I mean it just flowed into happening.

If he straight out asks me to visualize something, I feel a panicky feeling like I’m going to be in trouble if I can’t do it and it shuts it down.

I don’t know if that makes any sense or is of any help. It’s really hard for me to find words to explain.
Thank you, yes I know what you mean. I'm a little concerned about that too. And also not sure if I even like the images required. I'll ask my T to describe the whole process in advance so I can think wether I like it and make some changes in advance so everything we do feels right to me.
