I think I can relate to what you are saying here. I can't say I know all my feelings at this point, but am learning and learning to put words to them. I'd suggest journaling your thoughts/feelings so that when you see your therapist, you can bounce your thoughts off of her and she could give you some feedback in what you're trying to say or how your feeling. I've learned some key emotions through this process. Perhaps it could benefit you as it has for me.
