Dear T,
Still feeling OK about today's discussion. It felt like we were really being honest with each other. Not defensive, attacking, anything like that. Just...honest. And that we both truly wanted to understand the other. It feels like you do genuinely value our relationship--that came through today. And maybe that's really my biggest takeaway. Along with your saying you would let me know if something going on in your outside life had even a 10% chance of affecting our work together going forward. That you might not be specific, but you'd at least let me know something was out there like that.
I mean, thoughts subject to change between now and Thursday! Or now and, say, 2 hours from now. But it just felt, I don't know, real today. Two humans talking about their relationship. Who happen to be therapist and client.
Be safe in the storms.
Love,
LT
