It got to a point where I never felt secure that the session would be happening until we were sitting in the waiting room. Even then, one session, we went back, and he said he could only give us 20 minutes (he didn't charge us), because he had to leave to deal with something.


Even if it's for a completely valid reason, it can be jarring and lead to loss of trust in a therapist. I hope your T responds to your email and is understanding of your struggles with the cancellations.

Yeah, she's "on quarantine" because she had some cold symptoms and the clinic has to be sure she doesn't have covid. Besides that, I swear the woman has major healthy anxiety. She's always saying she is sick, or is getting sick, or has been sick. Everyone in the clinic has had their covid vaccinations (including her), but they're still not seeing people in person. I dunno...I'm just tired of the excuses. Lost trust = exactly.

I have an appt. with her tomorrow because she had an opening, but if she doesn't cancel I'll be very surprised.
