So I have been seeing my current T for about 4 months now meeting every Tuesday at 5pm. When I contacted her initially I said I would require an after hours appointment and was offered the 5pm slot.

Fast forward to yesterday and my T says she is “struggling” with after hours appointments, meaning she is feeling tired/drained by the time 5pm rolls around. She asked me if I could change to 4pm. I already start my Tuesday workday an hour early so that I have just enough time to catch a train and bus to make our appointment just in time. I said I most likely not be able to do 4pm. The other option is 8am on Friday. This would be better but I would still need to request this change from my boss which I don’t like doing.

T said there is no rush to make a decision and that I don’t have to change my appointment time but in my mind I have no choice because I will feel guilty if I keep the 5pm time. I’m honestly angry that I’ve been put in this position. I’m paying this T to see me at an agreed upon time and her problems shouldn’t have to be my problem. I’m tired too having started work an hour early but I do what I need to do to be there.

I can’t imagine keeping my current time and sitting there the whole time “T has no energy for me and just wants to go home”. 😔 What do you guys think of this situation? Would you be upset?
