My therapist missed our appointment today and I'm upset

My therapist didn’t call today at our scheduled time so I called the office. The receptionist said there were no notes in my file and she didn’t know why my therapist didn’t call. The receptionist routed me to therapist voicemail. I hung up with out leaving a message because I know I won’t get a call back anyway.

I have other scheduled appointments with her in coming weeks so it’s cool. I’m just mad I missed an appointment today. I need therapy!! I need weekly therapy! Ugh. Now I guess I’m throwing a written tantrum.

I would be a bit pissed off too. That’s just unprofessional. How is she otherwise? Does she help?

I really like her as a person. I’ve invested a lot of time with her. But no, I’m not completely satisfied as a client. I know she can’t wave a wand and fix my problems but… No I’m just not happy is the short answer to your question. She tries. She’s not awful. I just would feel really bad if I left her.

that sucks… tell her next time that you didn’t like that she didn’t warn you that she couldn’t do the appointment…

It’s not easy to start over… Maybe you can say something to her, it seems appropriate to bring it up

Yes, I suppose I could practice my assertiveness. One of the things we have been working on together. probably would be good real world practice.
