gardnergirl,
you sound like you would be a terrific therapist to have. I've read many of your posts, you always seem so genuine and caring, and I'm sure that comes across loud and clear to your patients :)

I can't say I do or have done anything overtly or intentionally to show I care because I thought it was needed. At least I can't think of anything. I just hope it comes across in what I say and do, and how I "feel" to the clients.
