are you able to talk to your "rational task oriented" self and ask that part to come into the session with you and to move to the front and ask the terrified suspicious part of your self to take a few steps back. Tell the terrified part if you see anything you are uncomfortabe with you can swoop up to front to take over, but try and let the task oriented version of yourself walk into the room as well. Tell you task oriented version of yourself do the talking.
