Would you prefer I use a different dismissing phrase for therapists to show I don't consider them to be among the number I figure in my life?
Although I find it very different from saying a hired consultant does not count in one's real life versus saying one's own child does not. Those are very different. And I really don't think the idea bothers the therapist for whom I do not count either.
