Dear MC,
Thanks for being so open to discussing things today, though I still feel like we only skimmed the surface. Glad you clarified the whole "balance" thing--even though I thought I'd explained that to you before, but maybe you didn't fully understand. And that you seem willing to discuss the transference in future sessions as much as needed, if H and I both agree that's what we want/need to discuss.
One odd thing though: Why did you get so weird when I asked if any other patients had noticed or complained about the no-handshakes-at-the-beginning-anymore thing? You acted like I was asking you to give you details about your patients' lives or something. I'm guessing either (a) a lot of them did notice, and you feel bad for how you handled it (you basically admitted that second part today) or (b) I'm the only one who said anything, and you didn't want to make me feel like a weirdo.
Also, your having your glasses off the whole session was an intentional choice, right? Like you were trying to appear more open or something? I seriously doubt it was just random, even though T tends to act like I'm nuts when I comment on the few times you've done that, how it just means I'm hypervigilant and has no further significance.
But yeah, I think it was a good session. Will do my best to not e-mail you--short week this time, so hopefully can make it till Monday...
Love,
LT
PS--Oh, who am I kidding, I'm sure I'll probably send you *something*.
