2. She's not the therapist. She's my primary care Advanced Practice Nurse

She's the one who asked if I had a DNR on file with them because if I had a heart attack she'd be obligated to give me CPR and old bones are so fragile they fragment. And that since I'm in therapy, I should 'be over' my 'issues'. That is just a taste of my first visit with her. After that visit I was sent a 'How was your visit' survey and I answered it with brutal honesty. I was called twice and promised they would talk to her about my concerns.

The second one being slightly improved isn't saying much. Previously I was being seen by a great APN who always did her utmost to help me relax. She retired.

My therapist is great. He is VERY understanding and sympathetic.
