In reply to My T canceled today...who's responsib. to connect?, posted by Speaker on January 28, 2005, at 10:03:20
He did his part - had his secretary give you the info you need. If he didn't want you to call, he would have had his secretary tell you that he'd be away for the weekend.
We all have things happen that cause us to cancel therapy, even our therapists.
Say my husband called you on Friday and said I couldn't make a lunch date, where we were going to discuss your frustration with your sister, that day because of a family emergency - ok, he might tell you that, say, my daughter broke her arm and I had to be with her. Would you not call me over the weekend, even though my husband gave you my pager number and said to call if you wanted?
I think you would call. I know that our lunch date would be different than a therapy appointment, but these guys are just guys, they are just people, and sometimes things come up that they can't control.We can all be so sensitive in therapy, and I know you are at the moment. Be good to yourself, Speaker, be kind to you, and call him if you need to. He is working very hard with you and would not want you to suffer because you are afraid to call.
Speaker, what would be the consequence if you were to call him when - by some indisputable rule - it was his responsibility to call you?
