Doing OK, thanks for asking! I think I've adapted to Dr. T's new location. It came up today, and he said, "You haven't talked about it much lately. How does it feel meeting here?" I said I guessed I'd come to accept it as his office, that I didn't really think about it much anymore--I'm used to it now. How I think I needed to feel he was still the same person in it and that it felt safe. (We did process some stuff with the move a couple months ago.)
In other news, H and I just started seeing a T (female and virtual) to help with parenting stuff regarding D. I'll call her K. The 90-minute intake session went pretty well (H afterward: "I like her, I think"). She has experience with autism. Hoping we can see her for a handful of sessions to get some ideas, then maybe just meet with her periodically for support as needed.
Because D often does not even want to speak to me or accept my presence (like going "No!" or "Why are you here?" if I'm in a common space in the house), K offered to see me for an individual session to discuss that. So I'm doing that (also virtually) Thursday. H is OK with it (and I said he could meet with her individually, too, if he wants). Then, H and I meet with her again in early December (next week is a big holiday week in the US--Thanksgiving--so she's off then).
So, we'll see how that all goes.
How are you doing, Comrade?
