Frustration...

Today I received a new patient, the brother of the girl who's mom wanted a female psychologist, since the patient is underage I had to first interview the mom, and according to her there are many things that can be worked here. After the interview with the mom I wanted to talk with the son, it's not always possible due to time restrictions, but since finished a little early with my other patient I took advantage of that time.

The boy is 16 years old and he was so disinterested that I found hard to continue with the interview, at least twice I had to feign that I was writing something to think of what to ask, I never had that problem, but I never had a patient that wasn't interested in therapy, I felt a little frustrated, but I will try to make the best out of this and not frustrate, I will give my best shot and if he continues to not be interested, well, to hell with him (I know that this might not be appropriate to say this, but know I am not the psychologist, I am me) :P, I won't force anything therapy on anyone.

  1. well, his mom is probably making him...so it kinda makes sense, a teenager being forced to do something his mom wants. Still sucks for you though
