Well, it's very unlikely, I would say, that you just
wouldn't like your therapist right off the bat,
and that's for a number of reasons.
One of them is that we work very hard
in the VA, in general, to really respect Veterans,
but the other reason is these evidence-based treatments
for PTSD, they're really about doing.
So right off the bat, you start actually doing things
with your therapist, and so you develop a sort of
teamwork very quickly out of the gates.
And so typicall,y what we find out is that
even though, you know, maybe this is a person that you
wouldn't necessarily buddy up to on the side of the street
or you wouldn't find yourself in the same events,
that there is sort of a teamwork that builds,
and you're both working towards similar goals.
