Current T's office is pleasant enough, and the sofa is very comfortable (the chairs are not). And she needs a lamp or two. But what's probably most distinctive to me is that she has a few items, art mostly, from my former T's office. They shared space over the years, and he passed along some things when he retired. Seeing them is a very tangible connection to him and to that time in my life (@30 yrs ago) and to my feelings during that time. It's a generally positive experience and has added another nuance to this therapy.
