@drjdbarton: There are a lot of things people think therapists will judge them for or get mad about, but I promise most of them aren’t a big deal. Here are a few things I don’t get mad about as a therapist… #therapist #therapytok #therapyhumor #anxietyrelief
I love late clients. More time for me to scroll TikTok. When I see one of my lates on my schedule I’m like yessssss 5 minutes

Thank you for sharing. Are you insurance based or private pay? The only issue is when people are late for appointments, or don’t show up, then it does affect how much a therapist makes if they are insurance based :/

😅No because I apologize to my therapist way too often for talking about myself or bringing a vibe down!

The time thing doesn’t work if you bill insurance cause you will get paid less

The way clients be apologizing for things left and right and I’m like “my girl..YOU pay me for this thing exactly right here!!”

you must not accept insurance though and I do think it is important for clients who use insurance to know that if they are more than 5-7 minutes late your therapist has to take a pay cut for the hour. and not an insignificant one

If clients are 15+ mins late I consider their apt a no show and charge their cancel fee

this might be a strange question but would it bother you if a client wore a cap to a session?

When I work with other addicts peer to peer I so rarely get mad no matter what happens. Whether it’s relapse, a toxic situation whatever. Their guilt and shame keeps them from reaching out when something happens. And I get that from their pov. Guilt and shame are so powerful, can make a phone call feel like a ten tonne brick.

You understand the importance of autonomy and I love that! Autonomy is such a big value for me as a therapist!!

Board Game Grandma :
I have the same exact mentality as a therapist and the shock from clients ends up being something to eventually process - so many clients expect anger, disappointment, or frustration, because of past or current experiences.

I can’t think of a time I’ve gotten mad at a client. Usually mad at someone for them that they’re talking about 😂 besides that I wish people knew that even “backsliding” I’m just really happy and honored that they felt comfortable to share that with me
