I’ve gotten into the groove of a non video phone call with my therapist who is aging out of the profession but has kept a handful of clients like me—we have a 20 year professional relationship with an 8 year gap in the middle. It’s personal to every such relationship, but I find the audio only call is more intimate and I’m able to focus better on the issues at hand. When we are on video conferences I feel more self conscious and it distracts me from the issues I need to focus on. I do enjoy the occasional office visit!
