Clothed Counseling

Therapy Opens

Doctor: Is this your first time in Therapy?

Patient: Yes. And I’m a little nervous.

Doctor: It’s perfectly normal. Most first-timers are skeptical. Take a look around; get comfortable. We’ll be spending lots of time here.

Patient: It’s cozy. I like the ruby red walls. Oh, I’ll take a Theo Chocolate. They’re organic, right? The Voluspa candles are making me sleepy. I see you’ve got plenty of books. Is that coffee table book about Wilco?

Doctor: We’ve got more where those came from, along with a few racks of workwear. Our founder, Leah Eckelberger, is a denim girl at heart, but we’ve got a smart, sophisticated look. Maybe you’d like to slip into something more business casual, like this wrap dress by Cibeline? Or how about a pair of Raven slacks? We can’t wait until spring, when we’ll be getting in lines like Bless, Quill, and Plastic Island.

Patient: What kind of Therapy are you running here?

Doctor: Oh, stop overanalyzing.
