I said yes, that it's a place I feel safe. My current T's office is very calming. Not just because of T's presence--just the way he's chosen to furnish/decorate it, plus two walls of windows looking out on some trees. It's a place I'd want to hang out, even without him there.

I used to say the same about MC's office, but more his old one--that one made me feel safe. I've never felt as comfortable in his new one--it's much smaller and doesn't have the same feel to it. But his presence used to make me feel very safe, wherever he was. Not so much, as of a week ago...

With ex-T, I never had that much of an attachment to her office, even her old one. And her newer one, also much smaller, she would always talk about how much she hated it (MC consolidated the practice), so that took away any possible safety feelings. And I'm not sure why she thought a bright red couch was a good choice for a therapy room...
