In reply to very confused about my T session today-lost, posted by Frida on February 17, 2005, at 10:52:15
Your reaction from sharing such an intimate thing sounds very understandable. Perhaps your T said the "love" and "in love" options in case you wanted to go there and may have felt inhibited about doing so. With her saying it first, perhaps she thought you would use the opportunity to explore the feelings further. However, you may be confused that she may believe you are in love with her when you are not. I do think you need to bring it up in your next session. Writing it out beforehand as was already suggested is a very good way of organizing and getting a grasp on what is specifically bothering you about it. Your T sounds very empathetic and open so I'm sure if you can bring yourself to talk about it, you'll see your way through together.
I bet you're very apprehensive, though. When do you go again? Let us know how it goes.
