I suppose I'm turning the blame on myself because I feel I could have responded more gracefully. It bothers me a lot when I feel like I'm relationally misattuned. . . I know, I know, she is the T, but this fact remains. I also think my pre-existent irritation, the one I wrote about here originally, may have contributed to precipitating the conflict. I suppose that's one more reason why it really is good to clear these little things when they come up rather than letting them fester. What a mess.
However, I believe this will blow over. T apologized during the session, as I left the office, and again this morning via email, so if anything, she is taking it more to heart and taking more responsibility than I am. I think it will be okay. But thank you for writing and for expressing concern. A little indignation on my behalf is consoling, I cannot tell a lie.
