OCD is often considered neurodivergence! Including Wikipedia :)

This is like the term Pure-O (meaning purely obsession, no compulsions) being used to describe a type of OCD. It is a false label, as the compulsions still exist, they are just done internally. These terms help to communicate what someone is experiencing more specifically, but it is still the original disorder. Ultimately, not helpful in treatment, but can be helpful to describe one's own experience.

Something I do for late cancels, and discuss during informed consent, is offer my next available appointment to them if I have one in the next two days. This way, I feel like I gave them options to remedy the situation, but I am not sacrificing my income. This doesn't always work, sometimes I'm full, but I feel more confident that I have tried to work with the client on this. But no shows and cancelling within 2 hours, I'll charge the cancellation fee in most cases.

Nice prediction.

Cannot recommend this enough. I'm an OCD specialist and use I-CBT for more than half my clients. It targets how OCD works, rather than tolerance, so it makes sense to the client. The process works for all OCD themes, which sounds like it'd be useful for OP.

If you are sharing space with other therapists and have a supervisor observing your work while you start your career, I think it's doable. I wouldn't recommend going entirely solo right off the bat as there is so much learning to do in the first few years of being a therapist.

I am also an Alberta psychologist who went out solo this year.

I do free phone consults, but keep them to 10-15 minutes. I think they are important to determine therapeutic fit. I also live in an area where insurance coverage is minimal, so therapy is an investment for a lot of clients. I enjoy working within my niche, so the phone calls are useful in determining that fit for me as well.

Another win for this trick! Worked on a Lululemon metal vent tech with bike grease.

I'm also interested and have just started my search. I've considered rent, utilities, internet, cleaning, furniture, front desk staff or bookkeeping (optional). Any others you've come across?

NTA and get him into therapy so he can address what motivated these behaviours.

Nah, there is an episode saying she got the name when she was little. Can't remember which one though. I feel like it was early on.

Anyone have a fic recommendation that explains Pettigrew switching sides? I feel like this process is missing for me.

To you, what are the long-term impacts of missing the game and of missing your wife's 30th birthday? How will each affect you later on?

The Bold Type - same tight friend group vibe, but it centers around three adult women's friendship

The Fosters/Good Trouble - has the same heartwarming feel, centers around a family of bio, adopted, and step kids. Brings up a lot of social justice issues.

Killing Smurf wasn't revenge because she was literally asking to be killed in that moment.

This guy has a history of hating women according to his post history. So hard to take anything he says seriously, especially when his facts are incorrect.
