I don't see it as other posters are exhibiting meekness - which sounds a tad judgmental. People approach therapists in different ways. I don't change anything at a therapist's office. I would not change anything at anyone else's office. If I dislike the office that much, I change therapists. Otherwise, I deal with it. I did not have the familiarity with the therapist I hired to change anything. And I do not believe in asking therapists for favors. To me, that sort of thing leads therapists to think they have bonded with you or worse, you don't know the cost of it hanging over your head. Also, I never thought it was all that good of an idea to get comfortable at the woman's office. I understand others use and see therapists differently than I do.
So, for example, in your music in the waiting room problem - I solved my hatred of her waiting room by simply going in exactly on time or 1 minute later so that her door was open and I walked in. I dislike the idea of a therapist summoning me.
