…for every time a client told me that they were developing Alzheimer’s disease when what was really occurring was something known as “normal forgetting”…
…for every time a couple called me for couples counseling much, much too late in the game…
…for every time I have heard someone say to me, “I knew I should not have gotten married to my ex but I just didn’t feel I could back out so close to the wedding”…
…for every time a new client, who had been given three names of possible therapists to see before choosing one, told me that I was the only one who returned their phone call…
…for every time a client feared they were boasting when all they were really doing was expressing healthy pride…
…for every time a client expressed a fear of becoming “too dependent” while telling me how they simply relied upon a loved one for support or comfort…
…for every time a client blamed themselves for something that was clearly not at all their fault…
…for every time someone expressed guilt and remorse for saying “no” to someone when that was exactly the right thing for them to have done…
…I’d be the Nickel King of North America!
