I think there are a few others who are dealing with this too...Antigua and Aphrodite I know for sure. And Dinah too. (Little daisy talks to little Dinah a lot.) I find it interesting that your child-self will rearrange furniture in your dreams. It seems like she is telling you what she needs to be comfortable in therapy, which is great. I don't know if I've identified different age states in my dreams. But I definitely know that the 3am watchfulness is my younger self.
I don't know how to soothe her yet, I still wish a lot that she would act more mature in therapy. The adult part of me struggles to keep control and censor what she says. My therapist keeps wishing I could find a way to see her strength. I just hear her sadness and neediness.
And I'm like you...shocked to be talking about myself in pieces and parts. Who knew?
