This T has been much better than other Ts I've seen about not pushing me so hard that I get far away and dissociated. When I start to drift, he doesn't leave me hanging out there by my lonesome, trying to figure out how to bridge the space. We're still pretty new to each other, but I appreciate that and hope he can continue.

What I've noticed him doing is usually bringing my attention to whatever I'm staring at (the pillow, the wallpaper, etc.) He'll tell me I can touch it, and the first time - with the fuzzy wallpaper! - actually was really encouraging. (I was understandably confused when he started telling me to touch the wall and thought something was very wrong, lol!)

BTW - I honestly think that every T-office should have fuzzy wallpaper near the couch. So much awesomeness. This is my Ts temp office, and he's going to be leaving it soon... and I'm seriously sad over losing the wallpaper.
