Reposting from another thread: I just ended a (half) session with my T at his home office for the first time. I was pretty nervous about it for reasons including if I heard his wife or son in the background (or they barged in). But all I could see in the background was a blank yellow wall and some blinds with light coming in. I wonder if it's normally that simple in there or if he removed stuff from the walls? It felt OK, though in the back of my mind, I had that he said it's hard for him to focus at home. I ended up mentioning that, and said, "So are you sort of sitting there thinking, 'OK, focus, focus...' to yourself?" Dr. T (smiling): "Basically." At the end, I asked if he'd be doing sessions from his home office from then on. He said it's his intention to keep going to his regular office. I said it actually felt OK, that I was afraid I'd hear a family member, or a pet would run past the screen. Dr. T: "A zebra walking by in the background?" Me: "That would have been really cool." He was still dressed professionally, no bathrobe or sweatshirt. Still drinking his coffee from a travel cup.
Thanks for this!
