Post-Betrayal Follow-Up

I had a terribly good reader suggestion on how to handle my post-betrayal confrontation with my physical therapist.

Make only one more visit to the PT.  Talk non stop about penguins and their attacks on your home and how you feel counseling could solve your problems. Threaten him with an egg whisk. Cross the road to your doctor - be rational, deny everything you have just said and done with the PT. Home for chocolates and giggles. 

Alas, after agonizing over how to handle the situation I ended up going for a straightforward confrontation with a witness (thanks mom!) present.  Although a bit more boring than the wonderful suggestion by Cass it was however quite entertaining.  I didn't know my therapist could turn so many shades of red! 
Today we had a physical therapy session and it is amazing how friendly someone can be once the fear of Mumpy has been put into him!

Cass was at his best with that idea!! Inspirational. It wouldn't matter that you had to play it straight...just thinking of the penguins and the egg whisk would give you the upper hand! What a wonderful image...

Thank you James. Sorry to hear that something like this has happened to you as well.
Isn't it frustrating?? My trouble with completely terminating PT with this therapist at the moment is that there is noone else to go to in my area (not with the spine specialty that is). I am very much on the look-out though for a new PT.
Thanks for your comment :)

This is appalling. Something similar happenned to me once before, involving a counsellor of mine. She wisely decided to stop having me as a client. I suggest that you break off this relationship as well.
