sometimes i wish my therapist didnt go above and beyond because it may of helped influenced a lot of assumptions i made that were untrue. like, my therapist use to go over time with me quite frequently, and towards the end, she just stopped completley..now i have to sit and wonder ...well why did that change? and she charges me a very cheap amount...so i wonder if she will ever look at me and say, you need to pay me more...its all nice and i am thankful but, strict guidelines do provide a sense of security and more expectation, because you get the same thing every time you go. whereas, "caring" "above and beyond" can leave gray areas. thats just me though. feel free to disagree.
