The silent and mask-like is deadly for me. And i specifically said that when presented with this, I do not do well. I begin to assume the role of the hapless "patient" before the all-knowing "doctor." Man, did that ever backfire!
I need a lot of back and forth. I like the notion of intense interviewing. I have found that referrals from one bad one just leads to another bad one (wow!!! what a insightful discovery on my brilliant part!).
