Hopefully by Monday you’re able to somehow set some type of appointment. I think dealing with the guessing game is tough. I think it’s best to try to straighten it out and tell her how you interpreted things and how you’re feeling.

I’ve had iOS and downs with my therapist and at times it was that she was going through things and others I’ll will never know because things are so complicated. I have found that overall when I’ve told her that she upset me or that I was unhappy with something it was to my advantage. At least it would place her in a spot where she would need to respond. Then you have more info on the situation.

Therapists are people too. I have found many times that my therapist will bring her issues into my session. If she was upset about something in her life then that’s the tone that the session took. Although I see that as being unprofessional it can be realistic.

What’s her usual behavior like during other sessions? Does she seem cold and as a matter of fact? Does she seem interested? I guess some of it is also dependent on the type of therapeutic approach she’s using.
