Karen, I just reread your post. Sorry I went off on my long smiling diatribe. I seem to be in a bit of a bizarre mood, PMS and allergies, but anyway, let me get this straight...
You called to cancel group, He said, no come in and then he scheduled an individual session for afterwards. Then, you went to group, and he cancelled the invidividual session with you that he had scheduled.
Is that correct? When you said he suggested an individual session, does that mean it was definite?
If so, he should not have cancelled the session, unless it was for a family emergency.
It sounds like he lured you into the group session with the promise of an individual session, then when he got you in group, cancelled the session that was your whole incentive to go. It sounds manipulative on his part, like a bait and switch.
Am I misunderstanding? The only part I wasn't sure about is when you said he "suggested" a session, did you say yes and he made a definite appointment. If so, then he cancelled a scheduled appointment on a whim, and that is not professional IMO.
And he worries about spreading himself thin! This is for you, not him.
The group does seem kind of unorganized too.
((((Karen)))
