I think that I'm fortunate. We've a bare clinic room, so the only personal things are her bag and mine.

And perhaps her cup of takeaway coffee, not even a personal ceramic cup.

Even the pen seems to be stationary from the hospital.

There sometimes is another case file or two stacked with mine, so I know others are there, but they're not client's gifts so I can have the illusion of being the only outpatient patient...

I suppose she has received small gifts such as cards or trinkets before though.
