(w) I was actually umm….thinking whether you can see us soon…eh you know….we really need to see someone urgent so… umm… thanks for your time.

You are welcome. Sorry for the delay.

It is a good thing this couple realisez that it needs help. They must be having a lot of trouble getting along.

(H) Well, Doctor, she forced me to come here…ehm…I gotta admit, it was her idea to see you…I am not interested in these matters actually I don't think its goanna work.

Why not …just give it a chance..

You seem frustrated.. is it because your wife forced you come here?

This guy has a lot of frustration boiled up inside of him..

(H) Yeah …chance…you see

You don't believe in chance?

Well, what's bad in taking chances…huh….I think you both are here so just relax…ok … and it's not an end…you both are here… even if you are here by force but you see she still can force you. This means …still there are chances already and in the same way if you are accepting her force means there are chances on your side too

The guy must have seen a lot of hardships and bad luck.

(H) ohh cumonnn… alright go ahead say what u want so I can get out of here ..

It is not me who will speak.. I am only here to listen.

I tried to calm things down.. I told him that I am here to listen to him so he could open up to me.

(W) see.. this is what I am talking about.. is this discussion or just something that he thinks he should listen from one ear and throw it right out of the other..

Do not wory.. the session has just started..

I think there is a communication ...
