My T also talks to whichever part comes out. She has said she has talked with some that are young and even one older than the body. Some seem to not know who she is, according to T, but from what I can determine, she talks to all of me with a gentleness, even to some pretty angry parts of myself. Each part of me holds a key to my life and my T recognizes that. It seems that T talks to each part age appropriately. I do know that she generally does not tell me what the content of those conversations are unless it is really something I do need to know. I prefer it that way too so I'm cool with that. She is very careful not to re traumatize.
