I thought of writing something to the effect that it works out quite nicely. That she was spared the clients she didn't like working with, and those clients were spared her.

My therapist was more kind. He said he thought it probably was something that should be expressed on a website geared towards clinicians, and that a newsletter routinely sent to clients, among others, might not be the best venue.

I like that about my therapist. He generally is more kind (at least in his professional life).

The funny thing is that I believe he was being perfectly sincere. He does, at this point, consider me an ideal client - if not the type of client his practice is generally geared towards. But at one time, he didn't much like me as a client. The difference owes more to changes in him, I think, than changes in me.
