Therapy has many levels

Another aspect of trusting the process in therapy is to trust that the therapy is working on multiple levels.
While you might be talking about your mother during the session, for example, your therapist is quietly making connections between what your mother has said or done (or not said or done) in the past and how your partner is making you feel in the present. They are also making connections between what your mother has said or done (or not) in the past and how you are interacting with them in the room.
Your therapist will bring these possible connections and insights to your attention to discuss how they might be relevant (or not) and how what your mother did or didn’t do “back then” is impacting you in the here-and-now both in your relationships “out there” and your relationship with the therapist.
This will lead not only to resolutions or insights into your relationship with your mother but also to deeper healing and understanding of the self in all relationships, including your relationship with yourself.
In this instance, trusting the process means understanding that what you are talking about in the therapy room isn’t the only thing that is being processed in the therapy room.
Sometimes it is even simpler than I have described above. Sometimes trusting the process, in these instances, means that although you are telling your therapist day-to-day annoyances or frustrations, the simple fact that your therapist is hearing you, seeing you, and understanding what you’re saying, is healing in itself.
