Why would you think this? Is it the way they all do it? If it is true, why does the therapist not tell me this and explain the general plan? I have asked. (I do not expect you to answer why the therapist does or does not do something - this is more rhetorical). Why does the therapist not tell me why she asks the same questions over and over despite my having given a precise and concise response the first time? I ask this directly, and she responds there is no reason.
Hopefully a consult will be able to help clarify this. This is a bad week to get other therapists to call back but I did cancel the next appointment so perhaps I can set something up during the time I do not see the current one.
