In my next session (tomorrow), my T said she would love to look into my past - achievements, adversities, how I’ve become who I am today, for her to get to know me better etc.
I’m feeling quite nervous about this. A part of me feels that this may be important and may explain some things I struggle with now but then there’s another part of me that feels it’s not necessary. There are also things I feel uncomfortable talking about and have been trying really hard to figure out how to avoid talking about those things without my T knowing. I know if I tell her that there are some things I feel uncomfortable talking about, she’ll understand, but I don’t even want her to know that there are things I don’t want to talk about. There are other things I will discuss of course. Does this make sense? Experienced similar thoughts and feelings? Any advice?

Thanks!
