That's interesting about the pillows in therapy. Why are they there?

ECHOES, do you think it would be OK if you played with the toys in your T's office? What would your T say? Has she ever offered you the toys before? I now have this terrible urge to interact with the dolls (see, I still can't say "play"). I just kind of want to "unpack" them from their basket and lay them out on the floor and look at them, and maybe put them in groups or something. Would my T freak if I requested the dolls? Should I do this? I remember once T told me he had taken a play therapy class before, where he and the other students "played" with toys while the play therapist demonstrated how to do play therapy, using them as the child stand-ins. T told me it was really therapeutic having the play therapist do play therapy on him. He made it sound really great.

Sister, I think your thread has triggered a doll urge in me.
