Dear Dr. Channing,
I realize that I'm the kind of person who will always need a therapist.
Not that I'm "crazy" or anything, but just because it's such a relief to talk to someone who doesn't pre-judge me - someone who listens and supports me.
I've learned much over the years as your client ("patient"). I've learned that I don't have to be perfect and that it's okay if other's aren't perfect. THIS IS HUGE!
I recall our first session. I felt like Sybil (the girl with 25 personalities). But your patience and wisdom really helped me to see the truth.
Maybe I'm "cured" but I would still like to see you anyway...I'm pretty sure there are some glitches in my psyche that will manifest themselves sooner or later.
Sincerely,
Madison
