Gap

I have been seeing a therapist for a few months and we attempted EMDR a couple of times. We were having problems with it's effect. As soon as we would start, my mind would shut off and I would abandon what I should have been thinking about...and would start concentrating just on my therapists hand movements. When asked how I felt, my only response was that I was too focused on her hand to think about my feelings.

She decided we needed to go back and do some more exploring before we tried again. That's when the holidays hit. It has been a month since I've seen her. What effect does a gap like this have in therapy, particularly as it relates to EMDR??
