I'm pretty sure that I know what you mean. I'm always open with my therapist; more than anything, it seems to me that the "50 minute hour" is never long enough. Whoever came up with that, well, someone should change it. Even a full 60 minutes would be better for both therapist and client.
I am very fond of my therapist and will remain in therapy with her. My only complaint is about her memory. She sometimes forgets that we decided to talk about a particular subject during a session. Then I am in session wondering why she doesn't pick up where we left off. I don't usually say anything, only because there are always other subjects to discuss.
Another issue that causes me to feel anxious and ruminate after therapy is that my T has forgotten my age twice. Two times over the course of our therapy she has asked if I'm such-and-such an age yet. I do look somewhat younger than I am, but geez. I always have to remind her that I am 56 years old. It's annoying to me, and even hurtful.
Do you feel that you need to go more deeply into an issue(s)? I think that bringing the discomfort up with her is an excellent idea.
