Space is utterly important to me. I remember when I posted about previous therapists here, months ago, I spoke mostly about the setting and ambiencec of the space.
My EMDR therapist feng-shui'd her office. Still an intimate setting, but it feels more spacious at the same time.
I would definitely bring it up. Perhaps ask if anyone has commented on her new office location? Having a definite, professional, this-way-to-the-office path through the house would not only keep her personal belongings from shouting at you, but it could be very soothing, as Tabitha said. Subdued lighting and plain, calm walls without adornments? My regular T's office (which is across the hall from the EMDR one) looks like a happy, cluttered, disorganized space. very spontaneous, yet she always seems to have the right piece of paper to hand.
