Accepting the "not so pretty" parts?

I've been digging really deep in therapy lately, both personal and marital and I'm starting to run into the "not so pretty" parts of me as my T puts it. The problem is when I see something about myself that I think I'm doing wrong this incredible condemnation kicks in and no matter what I know in my head, it feels like that one characteristic becomes the complete definition of who I am. So my T is being wonderfully accepting and non-judgmental and I'm beating myself up. Anyone ever dealt with this? Any suggestions on how to deal with it? I'd really appreciate hearing anything you have to say. Thanks.
