Thank you so much, Birdie and each of you.
So I told my T about the problem with the tech. I took a deep breath and included that when the tech slams herself or her hands against the walls it is really triggering to me.
T said that the tech is young and still in training. (She might be even younger than I thought she was.) That said, T said the primary concern is clients, and she takes it very seriously if a client is being triggered by anyone's behavior. So T is going to speak with the tech about toning it down and remind her that the clinic needs to be a safe place for everyone.
I am glad I brought the issue up. I think the tech will mellow out now, at least somewhat. And it does need to be an important aspect of her training. I mean, sheesh! She's not a high school girl at lunch break. Also, I don't think the tech will think it's me who complained about her...I believe that T will be discreet.
So I feel good. Not only about helping myself, but hopefully some other patients will feel calmer and safer there.
