OMG, yikes. Bad apples aplenty.

When our previous T was retiring, she referred us to someone that we'll call "Punctual Patty." Punctual Patty required that her clients arrive for the appointment 10 minutes before the scheduled session start time. No, thanks.

Many years earlier (pre-dx), a T (we'll call her "Elvira") spent the entire session in a leather armchair while we/MDs sat in one of two straight-back chairs across the room. The only other alternative was a faux-leather psychiatrist's couch. We don't recall what else about this T that bothered us, but the chair thing and her lack of warmth turned us off so much that we fired her by way of a lengthy letter. We have the letter on file somewhere, but we don't want to look at it again.

Last June our current T moved into the same building where we had met with "Elvira" all those years ago. In fact, it may even be in the same room. She sublets the room from another female T who we know for a fact is *not* "Elvira," who wasn't subletting but definitely had similar furniture. We figure that the psychiatrist's couch and the leather armchair probably came with the place.
