A snippet from today's session (paraphrased for the sake of brevity)...
Me: I keep dreaming of people trying to leave their children with me, abandoning them in my care, trying to get me to take responsibility for them. And I don't want them. It's so unlike my usual dreams of children where I'm like this (miming scooping them into my arms), wanting to take care of them, to rescue them.
T: But the children in your other dreams were already abandoned and alone. They needed rescuing. These children already have adults responsible for them.
Me, feels a little like "Oh. Duh." (Also a little impressed that she remembers those other dreams.)
