Yesterday after my session that ended at 3:00 I noticed that there wasn't anyone in the waiting room, and when I left after brushing off the snow from my car, I walked over and did the same to my therapist's. When I was about half way done with brushing off her car it struck me that she might be creeped out by this, I'm very sure she will know it was me (and that is good), just hope she wasn't upset by something that was meant to be just a nice gesture.

I think it was a nice and considerate thing to do! To me it doesn't sound stalkerish at all. Little thoughtful acts of kindness make the world go round

Whether its your therapist or not doesnt matter in this case. Random acts of kindness are what make life worth living at times. The act of doing things like this for others can be therapy in itself!
It doesnt seem creepy or stalkerish at all. Very nice of you.

Be best to discuss it next time you see your T.

proofing chivalry isn't dead... is not stalkerish....

of course driving to her personal residence and shoveling her out would be too much

A random act of kindness. That was so kind and gentlemanly of you.

Lovely gesture- I'd appreciate that for sure.

[brillskep]

It sounds like a nice gesture to show your appreciation.

But maybe you could dig out my t

I think it was nice!!

I think it depends on how you know it was T's car.

[Fuzzybear]

I agree - a nice and considerate gesture

That was my first thought.

But a very nice gesture!

I agree with Auntie214 about how you knew it was T's car. I have tried to figure out many times which car is hers. Each time I think I've identified it I walk by casually to see if there is a toddler seat in it (she has a three year old). Never there. Wrong again.

So solution would be to clean off all of the cars in the lot as a random act of kindness. LOL

I think it was a nice thing to do...I would be afraid to touch any car that wasn't mine for fear of setting off the car alarm, tho!

Have you seen your T getting in and out of her car? I have a set appt with one of my Ts around his lunch hour so I always see him in the parking lot getting in and out of his car...

Yes, this too.
I do wonder if the motivation behind it carrys a lot more to it than just an act of kindness. Especially when it happens within the therapeutic relationship.
Personally I found it a little creepy. I don't know why. But none if us know how mikes T will respond to it.
But someone women do not like to be seen as the female in need of male rescue.

I've thought of doing this but just know my t wouldn't like it. She would consider it a boundary crossing. But that's just my t. I know her car because I'm often the last appointment and it is a small office building so only our two cars are there.

I have cleaned off my ACT workers car once, it had been snowing hard all day. I did see her going from one building to the other next door and called out that I was going to clean it and she gave me the thumbs up. I then proceeded to clean my pdoc's car windows, she had been out at lunch so there wasn't much on the car. The parking lot isn't huge and since I am at the building next door, doing art and other activities I have seen who drives what. My pdoc has two cars at the moment. I don't think it is stalkerish, I think it is being nice and helping out. My pdoc is 60 years old and my ACT worker is in her late 50's.

Totally considerate thing. You wouldn't even think twice about it if it weren't your therapist.

A very thoughtful, kind thing to do. Getting snow off cars sucks!

She used to be at a very small office, often the only cars in the lot would be her's and mine. So I would have to have been completely oblivious not to notice.
