Dinah,
Thanks for your post. In bed and jammies sounded the best to me! :)
I'm horrible on the phone and have to confess I decided to go in at last minute. It worked out because I decided to discuss my transference feelings and there were huge gaps of silence on both parts. If I had been at home I probably would have grabbed a bottle of wine and been drunk by the end of the phone session.
She actually was very amicable to the discussion and even brought up additional transference scenarios. Which led to discussing the transference on deeper level. It could possibly end up being one of the most important sessions I've had. Thank You for your guidance on the subject. (BTW I finished Lott's book. It IS a lifesaver if you're wrestling with these issues. )Thanks again.
> Come to think of it, although my therapist is rotten on the phone, the few phone sessions we had during Katrina weren't too bad, except they felt more like chatting than therapy.

Just an inkling or curiousity but were you in harms way during Katrina?Thanks again for all your help!
