For a million reasons my therapist was forced to move her office. Prior she had a home office which she decorated and really made comfortable and inviting. I knew where everything was and depended on the consistency. I've noticed every minute change there and had difficulty handling that. Now she moved her practice to this small room with a couch and a chair that feel like they are on top of each other. As she shares the office with other T on different days, there are different licenses all over with unfamiliar names. There isn't even a desk, no room for it, just this shelf thing with books that she doesn't even believe in as they are more behavioral and she is psychoanalytic to an extreme (but that's another issue) She knows i am struggling dealing with this and she tells me that maybe when her name is on the door or with time i will feel better. (I couldn't care less about her name on the door) Nothing in this office belongs to her and i keep wondering, whose therapist does this office belong to. I know the environment shouldn't be the biggest deal but it bothers me so, so much. I have a million other issues to deal with and this is taking over! Any suggestion on how to refocus and not care as much about the physical environment?
