My therapist often seems brusque on the phone, like he doesn't want me calling him. I call him rarely, but when I do, he'll just say, Hi, it's Dr. A, then silence until I tell him why I called. But in session, he is usually kind, so I've gotten used to it and just try to avoid calling him. Sometimes when I ask for extra sessions he is brusque also, so maybe that's all it is. He wants to go on vacation. He is a little pissed. You can ask, are you angry or annoyed with me? It is often very helpful to talk about it, rather than just assume and get upset.
