My last therapist did a lot of group therapy, so the room was always slightly differently arranged. To me it was unsettling being in a room that looked as though there were people missing, but the changing things around didn't bother me. Another T before that operated out of two locations, and in one location changed offices 3 times over the course of the few years I saw her. I was more comfortable with her style of therapy though, and didn't much notice the room we were in, except when first arriving. I guess everybody's different.
