It does make a difference. Bigger than you'd think. My therapist is slowly redecorating his office and it seems every week brings new changes. And every new change is a distraction. Because you're used to focusing on things other than the furniture. When something changes, it's just harder to focus. Or at least it is for me. What I really hate is his adding pictures or paintings that have eyes pointing in my direction. Until I get used to it, I squirm like crazy.
Not to mention the big distraction of losing my beautiful soothing safe place and moving to the shiny new location that suits him very well, but me not at all. :(
Sorry to say I have a very shiny therapist. And I'm definitely a matte finish sort of girl.
