Question by JohnT: Should massage therapist dump me as patient over small disagreement?
I was in an accident about 6 months ago, and have been getting massages twice per month to help my back pain. I have been going to the same therapist, and I have founds her to be professional and helpful. Last week, we had a small disagreement. I was caught in traffic, and was 15 minutes late. She said that I would either have to wait for her to finish with her next client or reschedule the appointment. I found that completely absurd and I told her so, still she would not budge. Finally, I got real mad, and told her that she rubs guys’ d**ks for a living and that she is a nobody. I know that was wrong of me, and she is not that kind of a masseuse, but it was just in the heat of the moment. Figuring she would have forgotten about it, I called yesterday to make an appointment, and she actually said that she does not want me as her patient, despite me having apologized! I don’t know what to do. I would rather not start over with someone else, and I would prefer to continue with her. What can I do? I can try the “nice approach” and send her a gift card or some flowers, or the “not so nice” and report her to the state board. Any advice?
I get what you are saying, but I APOLOGIZED to her. I know I was wrong, but isn’t she exaggerating a bit?

Question by George Lass: How do you identify a legitimate life coach as opposed to an unqualified quack?
I need to set up an appointment to talk to somebody about practical dating and social skills advice. I want somebody licensed and experienced, ideally who will take psychological health insurance, but I don’t know the first thing about finding a good one and not just somebody who will take my money. How do you do it?

Best answer:

Answer by Derek
Find someone who generally wants to help people not someone that just wants money. Just look at their actions and you will know.
