[Therapist]
Good morning Vanessa. Well, I can't blame you for looking out the window instead of listening to me. It's a gorgeous day isn't it?
[Vanessa]
I like the blue sky.
[Therapist]
Hmm, so do I. Now, let's see what we can get done on this nice sunny day. Okay, here we go. I know part of your job requires you to do online searches, but a routine audit of your search history has revealed that you're doing a little private searching on company time. Is that right?
[Vanessa]
I get breaks.
[Therapist]
That's true. So, on your breaks, it looks like you were shopping for a costume. you purchasеd some fake fur material. What arе you gonna make?
[Vanessa]
(Indistinct muttering)
[Therapist]
What was that? Did you say the costume is a secret? Why is that?
[Vanessa]
I can't talk about this. He said he would always be watching. He could be here or there or anywhere in between...
[Therapist]
Are you talking about your dad? Have those feelings come up again? I hate sounding like a broken record, but this is something you really need to resolve if you're ever going to be happy.
[Vanessa]
I have! I compartmentalized him. He's locked away.
[Therapist]
No, that's not what I mean. You can't just ignore an issue. You have to face your memory of the experiences and process them so you can let it go. So you don't get triggered anymore. you can use this sort of self-dialogue to release these things.
[Vanessa]
I don't like doing that.
[Therapist]
Hmm. Well, okay, We'll get back to that. I'd really like to know something about this costume. What's it for?
