Genuine Concern?
Dr. Rogers, " The client would say, I'm feeling suicidal".
"You're feeling suicidal?" Rogers would answer.
"Yes, I'm walking over to the window, Dr. Rogers."
"I see. You're walking over to the window," Rogers answers.
"Look, Dr. Rogers, I'm opening the window," the client says.
"You feel like opening the window?" Rogers reflects.
"Yes I'm putting one foot out of the window, now."
"You're halfway out, is that it?"
"Yes, now I'm jumping Dr. Rogers."
"Uh huh,uh huh, you're jumping, " says Rogers.
And, sure enough the client jumps, making a whooshing sound as he falls through the air before landing with a crash.
Thereupon, Rogers walks over to the window, looks out and reflects,
Whooooosh... Plop!"
