Hi yang, thanks for the advice. Here is my thinking and maybe you boys and girls can help me sort it out. I apologize for repeating myself.
I've only had 3 visits with T. The first vist, my gut said she didnt have much experience with gay clients. The gay thing is one reason for seeing her but not the main thing. She is a PhD clinical psychologist so I think that maybe I should give her a little more time? Yesterday was a session where I started out nervous but ended up being a little pissed at her for taking two calls from her child (not emergency). That in and of itself didnt bother me but she didnt really give me any extra time. I think had she made an effort to give me another 4 or 5 minutes I would have felt better.
So now I'm thinking......do I give her a break for being human? I do tend to think she was pissed at her kid and took it out on me a little. And if she makes a habit of that (or the phone calls), then no way will I stay. I have a history of running away so while the urge is there, I just dont know.
