Bringing Work Home With Me

Short entry today, since I’m worn out after a long week.

As a therapist, I pretty much picture myself as a sponge. I soak up all kinds of stress, tension, and emotions each day in the therapy office. Most of the time, I can “wring” out  the thoughts I have about a therapy day once I walk out the door. So I don’t often think about clients away from the office. The tension and stress stay with me, and I need to deal with those things outside of work. Dealing with the mental-emotional residue is a lot easier to do if your clients are likable people, and thankfully most of mine are.
