When my T moved into her new office, we had to work out the proximity thing all over again. Since I was her first patient in the new office, I played out a couple of scenarios w/her so she (we) could work on our comfort level.
We sit across from each other and we are closer together than in her old office. I don't like it. Sometimes I ask her to back off, which she always does. One day I took off my shoes (I've never done that) and of course she had to comment when I put them back on. She plays w/the lights and everything. She watches me like a hawk and I know it. Everything is significant to her. Recently she hugged me tight even though I didn't ask for it. While I like the hugs, and often ask for one, what I don't like is carrying the smell of her perfume w/me all day long.
I really miss her today. Something's wrong but I can't pinpoint it.
