Maybe you can just ask them to help you focus more on the here and now and the future. Not everyone likes to stay focused on the past and that's ok. This is about you and what you need.

I refuse to dwell on the past. I won't talk about it beyond a quick "my mom was ******" or something, then I go on. I felt bad at times for my T because I shut down so much and refused anything past related but when he started helping me on the here and now and the future, it was much better for me. It's ok to say that if you need to

I've heard from people CBT is good for the here and now and future, maybe try that?
