Today I got very scared I thought something had happened to Joshua.
The kids Developmental Pediatrician suggested Joshua would get some regular counseling for his anxiety, thought it would be something we should try out. So ok, I found someone, the only one in town I could find that could see kids. He has been to 4 sessions so far, well today he was at his last session.
I Droped Joshua, like I have been doing, and then 50 minutes later I come to pick him up. So I arrived five minutes early and decided to wait out in the car, since Rachel is with me, and as soon as he opened the door to look for me I would get out to walk him to the car, since the only place to park is out on the street, which is a busy one since it's by the post office.
I spaced out a bit about the time, but kept on checkin to see if he would open the door to signal me to come get him. 10 minutes after the session was suppose to be over, I finally start wondering so I pay close attention, and I noticed the lights in the office are off, I get out, I did not remember seen anyone get out and leave. So I go try to open the door, and the door is locked. So I figured they are on the back rooms, so I nock, then again louder,, now I have Rachel waiting for me in the car by herself, even if it's just there, I have to keep an eye on her not to get off the car and get runned over by a car. So I quickly pick in and there is a hallway light on, but no site of anyone but their cat. I go to a side door and nock very loud and nothing. So I quickly head back to the front because I am worried about Rachel when the front door opened and there comes Josh with the therapist. By now I am upset, and plain scared wondering what had happened to Joshua, all this horrible pictures started going through my head, thinking they sent him out to look for me and someone had gotten hold of him, since next door there is a small community room that is used for drug and alcohol support groups, part of the clinic, and there is a guy in there, and often it just smells like alcohol, cigars and Urine of the drunks pissing out on the bushes.
I was not so happy to start taking Joshua here to start with, but when I told the Dev Ped she insisted I try it for some time.
I was upset, and I said I did not appreciated been locked out from the office where my son was, her escuse was that the receptionist leaves early and so she locks the office for safety. I told her that is not right and that I was just plain worried wondering what was going on and what had happened to Joshua. I said he would not be returning back and thanks anyway but no thanks.
I walked away and she stood out on the steps staring at me leave, probably evaluating me as, easy to upset, emotional unstable, blah blah blah. Holly cow!! You would think that she would not put herself in a possition like this, how do I know what was going on in there, as far as I know she was trying some of those odd therapy intervention for kids like rebirth who knows, the point is, she shouldn't of done this, and maybe I am over reacting but I think that is poor judgment of their part. I about called the cops when I could not get anyone to open the door, what would she tell the cops then? that I am over reacting?
Am I overeacting?? This is just crazy and plain wrong. I came home, droped the kids with my husband and took off for a drive to cool off, but still am upset about it all.
Sorry for the vent, I just don't know if there is something I should do about this, other then having him not go there anymore. My nephew also goes to the same councelor.
