| 0:00.0 | So Bob, I feel confident in saying that we can actually finish answering the questions from the survey |
| 0:06.4 | we sent out a few months ago because there's not that many left. Actually, as I scroll through it, |
| 0:11.0 | there are several left. But I feel like there's a chance that we might be able to get through it. |
| 0:15.2 | What do you say Bob? There's a chance. There's always a chance. This is the |
| 0:19.8 | Psychology and Seattle podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Kirkhan. I'm a therapist and a professor. |
| 0:23.9 | And I am your friend Bob from graduate school, therapist and practice here in Seattle. |
| 0:28.0 | Okay, so this first question is actually not from the survey. It's from discord. Alex, |
| 0:32.4 | 18 asked, what is your therapist's superpower? For example, keeping a straight face or completing |
| 0:40.4 | notes on time. Bob, do you have... I haven't thought about this. I don't know what I'm going to... |
| 0:46.5 | I don't know how I'm going to answer this question. But well, actually, can I say what you're... |

| 1:08.0 | feel safe. I know it's kind of a general thing, but I think very, very safe. That's a big deal. |
| 1:15.2 | Do you think that's true? Do I make people feel safe? I sure hope so. But do you... |
| 1:21.4 | Do you have an above average, a far above average ability to do that? |
| 1:25.3 | Oh, I don't know. I've never watched anybody else at work either, so I don't really know. |
| 1:30.3 | Carroge is my benchmark, so he makes people feel safe. If I could be just like that or close to |
| 1:36.2 | that, that'd be good. I don't know if that's what I would call my super power. My super power is |
| 1:41.2 | storytelling. I can induce trance by just telling stories. It's a client. Yeah, yeah. |
| 1:50.0 | What do you mean by trance? Well, gays inward essentially is what I mean. If you tell a good story, |
