It is always a relief to be in his waiting room. It is a place I can sit back, relax for a few minutes without teenagers all around me (I teach high school AND live with two teenagers) and just have quiet, me time. His waiting room couch is insanely comfortable and I've been known to fall asleep while I wait. I don't think any on your list really apply to me, not even #6 or #8 as I have had several really good therapists over the years. I don't even really think about the upcoming session in a few minutes. It is just a mind-clearing time for me.
