I don't see anything all that odd about the office -it is not unlike how I would picture a reasonable office for a therapist to look. Plants die when they come to me so I don't have them, but I am not alarmed by it or anything. With some of the reactions (exhankster comes to mind - how would it get knocked over? do you think clients do ecstatic dance in his office or something?) I would have thought it looked much more chaotic and almost trashy. I don't even think the guy has bad people skills - but if someone wanted someone huggy they could easily hire one of those guys who is. Hugging is not for us all.
