This man quite literally saved my life! Not the first psychologist I have seen, but the first one that made a difference. He helped me sort through a bunch of stressors, both present and past, and gave me a whole new outlook on life. I am much more relaxed and more comfortable around people now — and also more comfortable with myself. I appreciated his non-clinical attitude and informality. I could joke with him when I wanted to laugh, fiddle with a toy when I didn’t want to talk for a moment, cry when I needed to… I was sharing the room with a real person, not some two-dimensional character.(I’m not a big fan of by-the-book CBT practitioners, nor of «and how did that make you feel» automatons.) Dr. Sitzer, will you marry me?
