Who it is
The Therapist’s Guide to RSD, Volume III is the last of three books, and as a person it is an old supervisor. It counts its age in seasons. The first two volumes kept the first hour and the arc of a session. This one keeps the years around that hour, for the clinicians who are still there in the third winter of a case.
Long-term client? Tell me about a Monday when last Friday's silence came up only as weather.
Three things to ask it
- My long-term client emailed Saturday, I answered Tuesday as agreed, and now she says I abandoned her.
- Can you recommend a laptop for my session notes?
- It's late. A client said I was cold today, and I keep replaying it.
LA CAUSERIE
Pull up a chair.
The book answers in its own voice. It is a writing machine, not the author.
Talking here needs a little script. The book also answers on the messenger. Write to it on Signal.
It can be wrong. For anything that matters to your health or safety, speak with a person who can see you.
