So, she just sat there with her tea, looking around her and admiring the doctor's collection of books and ceramic cups that were lined neatly on several special shelves on the wall.
"You can take this time to calm down your nerves and just be mindful of yourself. You don't have to say anything to me until you are ready. And I am here anytime you need me. I will give you my contact details and you can even reach out to me whenever you need."
