I used to see my T in her home and I loved it. I found it fascinating to see that “side” of her. It also gave us more freedom and privacy. I felt like it greatly enhanced my therapy with her.
I see my current T in his office on campus. It is a very comfortable environment but we are often interrupted by someone knocking at his door, or he forgot to shut his phone off (although in fairness I have too), or whatever. I still much, much prefer this environment tho over when I saw him at an office he had rented years ago. Nothing was his and enverything was just weird. And I hated encountering other people.
How many sessions have you had a time her home? I would say keep trying, but it may ultimately not be for you. If this is a new transition for her as well, there might be a bit of a learning curve going on. If she opened the door in her bathrobe once I’d let it go. If it happens every session she needs some serious time management skills.
