Yeah, it was good. It was just a quick phone call, but enough to make me feel less stressed about whether I can have a session.
He said that down the track, he could reserve a specific time for me so we know it's there if I need it during the week we don't have an appointment. I felt a bit guilty when he said that, though, like someone else could use that and if I don't go, he doesn't get paid unless he does it at a different time from the normal session, so in fact, it would be an extra for him.
I was so upset over it and how everything happened so fast, from that to me nearly crying and then leaving. He said it wasn't the best as he knows things such as rejection or abandonment perceived or otherwise hurt a lot. He also apologised for pushing so much if I didn't feel ready.
I'm lucky, I guess, that he lets me email him. It's also helped him read over things before the session, so I don't have a massive folder with a whole heap of paper I've printed some stuff on.
Also lucky with this and that he would read it and even call me. I wasn't expecting that.
You wouldn't believe the amount of anxiety that has left me just knowing I have that session next week. I'm so much calmer now @tyme.
