hi there,
my therapist is often late to appointments. she stays after too if she is late. and there are also times where she is on time and runs a few minutes over if i am in the middle of something heavy. so its not that she is not giving me my time....but it is that i am almost always on time and frequently rush to arrive on time only to find her showing up 10-15 minutes late. i am often her first appointment...so her door is locked and we walk into the office/building together.
im going to bring it up with her. i wish i had a job where i could show up 10-15 minutes late for meeting, consistently, and not get fired. i doubt my telling her about it will cause her to change. i have brought it up before, i think she was more mindful for some time, more punctual and then went back to her old ways. i guess nobody is perfect.
but sh*t...at least i can show up on time. i wonder how much of this is simply knowing "oh well, whats he gonna do? he needs me...." the kind of thing that she can actually change but doesnt think its important enough to change because she is the one with the power.
all stuff to talk about with her. i know.
thanks for reading.
