Wow Sunny. It must have been an amazing session to feel that it was life-changing. I think sometimes I notice my age-old behaviors, but it is so hard to change old habits. Can you share more about this one? Did you do something specific to feel that you'd changed a pattern or is it more that you have the maturity and insight now to just choose a different path?

Sometimes it feels good when T's are directive. I think sometimes my T drops in little comments to prepare me for later discussions. She know that I need a long time to process and think about things before I'm willing to discuss them. So my guess, I've never asked, is that she drops things in for my reflection to help direct me towards more growth. Maybe this is what your T was doing.
