You scheduled an extra session, then you in effect tried to take away her bonus. Total power play. And I can't tell if you're playing dumb about this to get your own way or what. Do you really not see how it can be interpreted? Your time is your time - you both made a commitment. I think that's what she is saying. I would also say, Stopdog has not made the same commitment for that time to her t.

No so fast, young Hank!
1. I talked to her two weeks ago about getting an assessment. She gave her blessing
then.
2. And the conflict is money, not time. I have a finite mental health budget and the assessment must come out of T's allocation.
3. I asked T today, "Do you feel rejected?" She said she did a bit, and this was a "double whammy". But I was not to stop on that account.
4. I am hoping that the assessment will throw up some new ideas. T wants to hear what they are.
