Dear T,
Thanks, that really helped. (Though the discussion on my sadness being near your office felt a bit...unfinished.) The main thing is that it felt like you were really present during the session. That you were really listening to me and trying to understand. And that you were...you. Not whoever you seemed to be on Wednesday.
I wish you weren't seeing more clients now. And you seem to wish you weren't as well. But I get that you felt you needed to help people in need of mental health in our area. I just selfishly hope that need will start to abate soon, that maybe they'll stop seeing you as much. But it's also good to know it's not about me at all, the not being able to offer the earlier session yesterday, the not responding to my email till 10:30. And it also helped to know that you expected I wouldn't be satisfied with your email reply. And that you had given it thought.
It feels like you're still there. Just stretched a bit thin right now. I hope you can hang in there and take care of yourself as well as your clients.
Love you,
LT
