I hate to feel like my therapist is just reading from a text book. I'm a person! Not a list of characteristics from a text book. Sure, he can apply lessons learned from a text book, but he should try to be a bit more spontaneous and sly about it. I'm not dumb. I like to think that I can easily tell when he's reading in his mind the book that states, "When your client is feeling depressed, refer to page 213." And I swear I can see the pages flip in his mind. It is frustrating. I can't wait to see his face when I bring him the list of appropriate compliments. And he better use them. I only wonder if I will begin to question how genuine they are.... Certainly......
