Beaten, Working Toward Recovery Chapter 3
The Doctor continued with her questions to Dana. “So you don’t feel like you may be a little traumatized also, it had to be hard watching this happen to your friend.” Dana couldn’t understand why Alice’s appointment had turned it attention to her. “I’m fine; we just need to get Alice back on her feet.” The Doctor reached into her desk and pulled out a card, handing it to Alice. “That’s a therapist who handles couple therapy for couples who have undergone trauma. I think it might do you two some good to go talk to her.” Dana was starting to think Alice’s Doctor was a total quack. “We’re not a couple, and I don’t think we need couples therapy.” The Doctor once again turned her attention to Dana. “You to may not be a romantic couple, but the events obviously have linked the two of you. You don’t have to see the therapist if you don’t want to, but I think it would do both of you some good to talk about that night with someone who could help.”
DANA’S SUV
Alice didn’t quite know how to talk to Dana at this moment, she agreed with her Doctor about couple’s therapy, but obviously Dana didn’t. Alice wasn’t a stranger to therapy, with her mother it was surprising that she had received as little as she had. Moreover, she did know from experience that sometimes, having someone outside the situation, made it easier to see all sides.
But she also knew Dana well enough to know this wasn’t her experience. Dana had normal parents, ***** she had loving parents, a mother who would make tomato soup and jelly sandwiches, so she had never felt the need to see a therapist. Dana was the type of person who set her mind to something then went and got it. Though Dana appeared childlike to a lot of people, Alice knew better. When Dana was determined to get or do something, she did it, on her own with out anyone’s help. That was why Dana had made it as far as she had in tennis. Once Dana set her mind to something, you better move out of her way. Unfortunately at this moment Dana had her mind set of the fact she didn’t need any help, and she could do it all herself.
