First 3 words in a session?

Posted by Kenya on March 30, 2009, at 11:34:00

Hi everyone! I'm new here, and just wanted to ask a quick question.

I have a hard time starting to speak in therapy session. I'm never sure where to start, and it always just comes out as a 'laundry list' of activities I've had during the week - "i went to dinner with my mom yesterday... i saw my brother's baseball game..." This is not effective therapy.. at least that's what my therapist tells me.

If you could please just share the first few words that you usually start a session with, I think it could really help me.

Should I be starting with things like "today I feel..." or "last session we discussed..." I just can't seem to get the ball rolling, and unfortunately, my T is all about it being MY session and she shouldn't be the one leading it.
