I had the 'pleasure' to see a therapist this afternoon to evaluate me for my Long-Term Disability appeal. I've had to see her several times in the past 3 months. The woman is utterly clueless when it comes to counseling. (I have a degree in psychology, so I have a little understanding of things.) I sat there in the chair and stared at her clothing attire. I decided she was dressed as a bruise today. Black housecoat sort of dress with a navy sweater, navy tights (with runs in them) and some hideous black cloggy shoes. She was filling out paperwork about my claim, would ask me an occasional question and then write for five minutes. (ie, do you hear voices? I replied, only when someone is talking to me. Do you know who you are? Well, I don't think I'm Abraham Lincoln.) *This was all stuff we covered in the first session. She never looks at me, she just types into her computer (since she was filling out a form, she had to write this time). Not ONCE did she make eye contact with me at all. Meanwhile, I was trying to envision how I would make her over. (That sweater made her ass look like the Grand Canyon!) New hairstyle, different coloring, get rid of that god-awful pepto-bismal caked lipstick... Once I was done with that, I started focusing on how badly her office needed to be dusted. Then I was imagining how to re-arrange her tiny windowless office. Does this indicate how f'ing bored I was for 90 minutes? If I wasn't suicidal when I walked in, I was ready to do it by the time I left... |

I know. But considering her ensemble, nothing would have surprised me.

i sympathize with you and don't envy her job. i work in psych as well. only my people DO hear voices, and aren't always sure who they are.

cant you choose another therapist? I mean, if you are going to bother with it at all even for just an evaluation, you might as well get something out of it, eh?

Nope, she's assigned to me. I have to jump through the hoops and play their reindeer games. I feel sorry for those that are seeing her for serious help. The woman is HORRIBLE. Totally uninterested, unnurturing...

My parting comment (after the paperwork was all done) to the 'professional' the one time I was 'required' to see one involved jumping, a tall building, saving time, and a tether to the @#%$#^*.

I had to be on my P's and Q's because she still had to sign them and send them off... And I might have to go back and see her again. UGH.

I'm blushing! Glad you enjoy. Better to tame that potential crush - it's dangerous.

So noted. You should focus your attentions on a girl closer to where you live. Cyber-crushes never lead to cyber-sex.
