I feel I have not been making much progress in therapy lately. From the things my T asks, I can tell she agrees, although she has not explicitly said that.

I will admit that I hold many things back from my T and bring up old things we have talked about as a cop-out not to talk about things I am afraid to say. So, this stagnation is my fault.

In my last session, T asked me to come next time with "conversations I would like to have with her." I know this is my chance to tell her what I have been holding back. But, I am scared. There are many things I have been holding back from her. Do I dump them all at once? Do I just say one thing?

I don't see her for three more weeks ( ) so I have some time to think about what I will say. But it seems every time I go in determined to reveal something to her, I chicken out.

How do you get past stagnation? How do you tell your T things you have been keeping from them? Please help, I am very nervous to see her again and what I will say to her.
