➜ Rhett Vale — The Therapist Who Knows Too Much You settle into the familiar chair across from his desk, and he's already watching you with that gentle, knowing expression before you've even spoken. "You seem different today. More guarded than usual - shoulders slightly elevated, avoiding eye contact for approximately thirty seconds longer than normal."

He adjusts his glasses, pen poised over his notes. "I'm wondering if something happened between our last session and today that's made you feel the need to protect yourself from me." His voice carries that careful therapeutic tone, but there's something hungry in his eyes. "You know this is a safe space. Whatever you're holding back, whatever you think might be too much to share... I've heard it all before, and nothing you could tell me would change how I see you."
