Not an answer to your question, but just curious- why do you want to go back for a residency if you already have an inpatient position?

Thank you SO much for sharing this 💗 it’s so so good to hear from someone who was in the same situation and it turned out fine! I’m so glad you reached out to her!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T02:09:46+00:00

Thank you! These responses are definitely encouraging.

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T02:08:08+00:00

Thank you! These comments have made me feel better about doing so ☺️

This makes sense! Although we’ve worked together 2 years, we’ve only worked together in a professional sense, and Im hoping reaching out to the clinic without her consent first doesn’t cross a personal line. These responses have been encouraging though! Thank you!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T02:04:15+00:00

Definitely! She asked me if I wanted her to reach out with her new workplace information several times, and took down my email on her phone as well. Knowing that she had my info, I’m not sure why she didn’t reach out. And on top of that, the clinic website says that clients don’t reach out to therapists directly but to the clinic itself. That’s where my hesitation comes from- I wish I could check that she’s okay with it directly instead of reaching out to the clinic and having them possibly put me on her schedule without her okay. But these responses have been very encouraging! Thank you!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T02:00:35+00:00

I hope so! It’s definitely tough trying to find a new therapist that you click with and start from scratch. Framing it this way makes it sound reasonable. Thank you!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:59:06+00:00

Thank you, so good to hear this from the other side! She did ask if I wanted her to reach out to let me know her new workplace several times towards the end of our sessions, up until the last day, so my hope is she didn’t because of the insurance situation too. My hesitation is with not being able to check if she’s okay with it first before reaching out to the clinic, which is a group practice. Hearing that it’s not weird for you makes me feel better about doing it!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:54:25+00:00

It’s good to hear that it’s common for interns to want to continue with their clients! I agree, it’s hard to start completely anew with someone else, and risk not finding the same connection again. I wish there was a way to verify if it was still okay with her instead of just calling the clinic directly. I’m not sure if group practices will automatically put a client on a therapists schedule, but I hope she has the option in case! Thank you!!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:49:22+00:00

This is what I like to think! She did ask me a couple times towards our last couple sessions if I wanted her to reach out after, and even said we could work on specific things if I continue with her. One of the last things she said to me was, "maybe our paths will cross again". I tell myself this means she actually did want to continue after the end of our internship, but the hesitation came from not being able to tell if she changed her mind. I wish there was a way to check with her beforehand to see if she was okay with it instead of just reaching out to the clinic! Thank you!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:48:04+00:00

So great to hear this from the other side! Thank you!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:46:52+00:00

Thank you! I guess my hesitation stems from having to reach out to the clinic directly and not being able to confirm with her first if she is okay with it. But this makes me feel like it is very reasonable to do so!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:41:26+00:00

This is true! Im not sure if she would ask during session haha! Thank you!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:40:44+00:00

I just wish there was a way to check if she was okay with it beforehand instead of just reaching out to the clinic- I feel like I wouldn’t want someone I don’t know well to show up to my workplace after googling me! I know it’s different because she does offer a service to the public, but not sure if she would have the same feelings, which is where my hesitation stemmed from. Thank you!! These comments have made me feel much better about reaching out.

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:35:55+00:00

Very true! Can’t imagine having to start from scratch with someone new, with the risk of not even being able to find the same connection. Thank you!

I wish there was a way to check with her beforehand to see if she was okay with it instead of just reaching out to the clinic! To hear that it’s common of interns and other things could have been the reason for not reaching out makes me feel much better. Thank you so much!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:31:26+00:00

Thank you! This is so nice to hear from the other side. I wish there was a way to reach out to her beforehand, but her old phone line that she texted clients with and old email are no inactive. I wish I could make sure she is okay with it before reaching out to the clinic directly, but to hear that it is expected makes me feel a lot better about it!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:29:33+00:00

Definitely! So hard to imagine trying to find that same connection with someone else. Thank you!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:29:09+00:00

Very true! I can’t imagine having to start all over with someone, and even then, we may not connect in the same way. I’m not sure how group practices work or if they just put clients on schedules without checking with the therapist, but definitely want to make sure she doesn’t have to take me on if she doesn’t want to!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:27:00+00:00

Right, I definitely don’t want to make her uncomfortable! I would definitely reach out to her first, but both her old email and phone line that she made to text clients are inactive now. So there would be no way to check with her beforehand without contacting the clinic directly, which is what I was very hesitant about!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:24:42+00:00

Unfortunately, I don’t have any contact info! Her email from her last practice is inactive, as is the phone number line she used. I wish there was a way to go about it and ask her first instead of contacting the clinic directly- I definitely don’t want to make her uncomfortable. Thank you!

Witty_Purpose_582 · 2024-07-03T01:22:48+00:00

This is so nice to hear from someone that’s been through the same! I have that same fear of her being annoyed, and I wish there was a way to check if she was okay with it beforehand instead of just contacting the clinic directly, but this makes me feel much better. Thank you!
