Once I saw someone share that their therapist didn’t realize they hadn’t ended the telehealth session and the client heard them say, “oh my god she is exhausting.” Which, I understand countertransference and burnout, but what an awful thing to hear from your therapist!
Now whenever I close out a session, I say something positive about the client just in case they can still hear, like “she is so kind.”Idk if they’ve ever heard me but it’s helped my own burnout a lot, like a gratitude practice.💜
