My psychologist uses the standard of 50 minute hours with 10 minutes between patients... to allow for run overs, notes, phone calls etc. I know the patients on the other sides of my appointments.. in that we know each other's names, basics about the situations we are in etc. I think my T schedules like-issue patients on the same days, when possible? It's quite alright to see others who are dealing with the psychological issues of disability, for me anyway.
Yes, imo, they are all like you mainly... human beings seeking advice on how to make living happier.
