Hi Hannah,
I can't believe I didn't go online over the weekend. Where are my priorities? Good thing my job is such a waste of brain matter that I can hang out with Dr. Bob and the gang while getting paid for it. Tee hee.
I did talk to Age 3 Me in front of my therapist. She guided me: "what would you say to her to make her feel safe here?" At the end of the session she told me that my assignment was to walk with little me down the hall, and then imagine she's with me in the car and talk to her. Get to know her.
I think my T decided to try the empty chair on me because I told her I wanted to quit therapy the week before. Plus in the empty chair session I told her my inner child is dead.
I didn't feel foolish, so maybe this will work for me. I'll let you know how it goes.
