Thanks to each of you for your thoughtful input. It's so helpful to me.
My therapist is 69 years old and has asthma and barely recovered from pneumonia a year ago. So she's feeling super-cautious bout everything. She did say that everyone will get checked out when we enter the clinic (temperature). She also said she'll be disinfecting surfaces after clients leave. But I'll be siting on a couch...obviously cannot be disinfected.
I'll go and give it try. Honestly, though, I wish I could just go back in the autumn. I am waiting for a surgery date (achilles tendon) and hoping it'll be later this month or early June. That would delay going back to therapy by at least 6 weeks.
I think I need a break. The sticky part of this is that I'm in the last bit of my application for SSDI. My therapist just finished filling out the paperwork to send to my lawyer. Sooo...it doesn't look good if I bail now. And I really like my therapist. The most uncomfortable aspect, as far as the therapy itself, is that the phone therapy has changed my relationship with her. She's been treating me more like a friend than like a client. That bothers me.
Anyway, like you say fern...I'll just go and take it from there. Anything has to be an improvement (for both she and I) over the phone crap.
Your question, blue, makes sense. Why use masks when we're across the room from each other? I think its a distance of about 8 feet.
Well, maybe once she feels more comfortable she'll drop the mask protocol.
Every aspect of life now is just so new.
