Rhythm and Flow of a session

Generally she starts with "last week....blah blah blah, how do you feel about that now?" and then she goes into "what was your most difficult day this week" and she always touches on the pertinent info like "what's going on with your move? where is your cancer treatment now? how is that issue with daughter going?" There is still plenty of time for me to talk about crap. She always wraps up with the important aspects of that session. Never homework, just things like "if that comes up for you this week maybe you can write it down, or call me" She pushes the whole "call me" thing, probably because she knows I won't.
