I go to get my new patient in the waiting room, but when I find it empty, I look down the hall and see a young woman walking away from me, dramatically flailing both arms in sync..?
The waiting room door is open. Most likely, I will figure out why the door is left open in the next few minutes. The sessions always begin before we get inside my office.
I taught Christa in a seminar at a psychoanalytic institute two years ago. She is a psychiatrist newly in private practice, and wants a combination of psychiatry and psychotherapy patients in her practice.
