well it sounds like she's a piece of work! be careful - you have every right to be. on the east coast, just this week an unmedicated psych patient brutally attacked their therapist and one other person and it was all over the news, so people with a history of violence who go off their meds really are dangerous sometimes i guess. i hope that you don't have to continue seeing this lady - if she was threatening you is that a good idea? wouldn't she be really resistant if she has already made up her mind that she doesn't like you, if you already have such a bad working relationship after, what, just one visit? maybe you could professionally recommend that she see somebody brand new or something. i just want to say, too, that i really admire you for what you do. i was a psych major in undergrad and i graduated recently and i've been dealing with the whole "how can i look after other people when i can't even look after myself" thing (i was a behavioral counselor for a bit) and really struggling with it, but i like that you are good at what you do and are actually helping people and seem to be so strong. good on you!
