She's Lost Control

---

Look.

I know this is

a weird situation,

but...

all I can say is that

when I'm here with you,

I'm completely here.

Yes, you pay me for my time,

but, um...

you can't...

control how I feel.

That's...

just between us.

Thank you.

Hey.

Let's see.

This just slides.

Okay.

Um...

How are things with

your grandmother?

She keeps nagging me.

But I have two interviews

next week.

You do?

Great!

I'm so proud of you.

Any thoughts or feelings

you wanna share?

All right, well, let's just say

we'll put in pencil

one or two more sessions,

but after that, I want you

to check in with me about it.

Yeah.

So what about Christopher?

Yeah, I think so.

I think his...

His confidence levels

are way up.

And he's continuing

to be much more active.

You're coming up on closure

with him.

Are you having anxiety

about that?

- No.

- Are you okay with that?

I am, I really don't.

I, um...

I mean, I care...

I definitely care about him.

Um...

Well, that's a given.

Yeah, but he...

You know, I think he's ready,

and I don't anticipate

any boundary...

issues.

Okay.

Okay.

So, Johnny Hayes.

He's been with me for about,

two years,

and he has sustained problems

with intimacy.

Looks like some

compulsive behavior as well.

So, would you like to meet him?

Yeah.

Well, what about your workshops?

They start next month, right?

I don't have to submit a draft

of my thesis until the fall,

so...

Okay.

So I'll set up a meeting.

And I guess that's...

That's it for today.

Thank you.

Hi.

Hi.

Come on in.

How are you?

It's nice to see you.

So, before we get started,

if I could just have you

fill this out.

It's a confidentiality

agreement.

We'll both sign it.

Not for sexual gratification

or entertainment.

Of course.

Great, thank you.

If you could just do me

one more favor.

Um, swipe your outer gum

and your cheek

in a full circle.

It's a rapid test.

You didn't get a copy

of my results?

I did. This is just

an additional precaution

that I take.

Thank you.

Did you bring a check?

Just cash.

Great, thanks.

Just leave it.

No, no, no, leave it on the bed.

You want one?

I'm fine, thanks.

Normally I would ask

that we refrain from drinking

before or during a session,

um, but I'm open to talking

to Dr. Cassidy about it.

Understandably,

I'm sensing you have

a very high level of anxiety.

This room okay for you?

Sure.

Tell me a little bit

about yourself.

We're just gonna talk today.

We're just gonna try

to create a safe space.

Yeah.

What's it like being

an anesthesiologist?

Nurse anesthetist.

Okay.

What's the difference?

Pay grade.

Put people to sleep

among other things.

What about stress?

How do you handle stress?

Have to make decisions fast,

get a result,

move on to the next job.

I don't like follow-ups.

So walk me through this.

You're at the hospital all day,

and then you go home

and you take care

of your sister.

You read my file.

I did, I read your file.

But look, a real person.

Note that the first piece

of cucumber is perfectly fine,

the first piece she eats.

The other one needs

to give a rock to us.

And she gets a grape

and she eats it.

And the other one sees that.

She gives a rock to us now.

Gets again cucumber.

If you give them grapes,

that's a far better food,

then you create...

So that's the experiment we did.

...perfectly willing to do this

25 times in a row.

So cucumber, even though it's

really only water in my opinion,

but cucumber is...

I wanna go down on you.

We can do that.

But I need you to take

your shirt off first.

I... I can't.
