Many people misunderstand psychological counseling, thinking that only "psychopaths or people with ntal issues" would seek counseling, which is absolutely a big misconception.
In reality, people with severe conditions are not suitable for psychological counseling because they can no longer communicate normally and need psychiatric treatnt in a hospital.
The "visitors" who can go for psychological counseling are normal people. Compared to treating illnesses, psychological counseling is more adept at treating various "unhappiness." For example, anxiety, insomnia, depression, loneliness, sadness, inferiority, poor parent-child relationships, and disharmonious intimate relationships.
Even if you’re not unhappy and just feeling bored, you can still find a counselor to chat and express your dissatisfaction with life. The premise is, you have to be willing to spend money.
Moreover, the price is quite high, similar to maintaining a car...
"Xiaong, how much is your consultation fee?"
Seeing He Ying return to the garage, with Li Peifeng thus disappearing, Huang Tianxuan removed her mask and asked this.
He Ying poured her a glass of water and explained, "During the lockdown period, our studio’s services to all residents in the community are charitable, so there’s no need to pay."
Huang Tianxuan shook her head, "I should pay, and I didn’t bring you a gift, just tell the price."
"Seven hundred per hour."
He Ying smiled faintly, "If you really want to pay, it’s not too late to do so after we’ve talked."
Huang Tianxuan nodded, took a sip of water, and looked around the room’s setup without intending to speak.
Not saying anything? Ti counts even if you don’t speak!
He Ying smiled inwardly, genuinely looking forward to this conversation. She initially thought that Huang Tianxuan was just an ordinary friend of Li Peifeng, and this ti it was just an ordinary consultation, but now it seems... there’s a lot to talk about!!
"Ding~"
He Ying’s phone rang, but she quickly hung up after just one ring and turned off the phone. She apologized slightly, "Recently, during the lockdown period, many residents in the community are bored since they can’t go out and have been booking consultations with ."
Huang Tianxuan nodded slightly, "Being trapped at ho and unable to go out, cut off from society, naturally leads to various real-world issues and emotional problems... How have you been feeling lately?"
He Ying also poured herself a glass of water, "Not good, not bad. Though being confined to the community, my work is here, and being in my second year of postgrad, my studies aren’t really disrupted."
Pausing slightly in her tone, He Ying gazed at Huang Tianxuan, her eyes caring but not intense, showing just the right amount of tact, "You seem a bit off, Sister Xuan. Did sothing happen? Is it convenient for you to talk about it?"
"I..."
Huang Tianxuan wanted to say sothing but hesitated, looking at He Ying as she fell into contemplation. After a mont, she said, "How did you and Li Peifeng et?"
Miss Huang actually knew that the person in front of her with white hair did not have a simple relationship with Li Peifeng, because when she first arrived in the Capital, she imdiately sought out Li Peifeng at Beihua Normal University.
By chance, she encountered ’A Gust of Wind in the World’ conducting a web literature seminar, and during the lecture, she saw He Ying raise her hand and challenge Li Peifeng.
So, Huang Tianxuan was sowhat curious about what specifically happened between the two.
"Us..."
He Ying was slightly taken aback, not expecting Huang Tianxuan to bring this up suddenly, but she still smiled and truthfully recounted various past events between her and Li Peifeng.
For counselors, appropriate self-disclosure is necessary, especially given the current situation. He Ying believed that if she didn’t start talking first, Huang Tianxuan would certainly not share her story.
In fact, He Ying’s move was right, as after hearing her out, Huang Tianxuan’s otherwise calm mood evidently shifted, her face full of a warm smile, "I see, do you still keep in touch with him now?"
"We definitely keep in touch, but it’s limited to that. Otherwise, Wu Wenyue would never have allowed to work at their studio."
He Ying felt it was unnecessary to ntion her transactional relationship with Li Peifeng, as it seed to border on illegality.
And smart as Huang Tianxuan was, she didn’t fully believe what the person in front of her said, chuckling and continuing the conversation, "You were decisive; breaking up with him was the right decision at that ti."
He Ying smiled too and continued, "So, can we talk about you now?"
"?"
Huang Tianxuan exhaled gently, looked at He Ying with an almost self-reflective expression, and smiled leisurely, "You’ve already said it all for , added a couple of dream stories, and it doesn’t affect making the sa decision as you. Although there are still so slight emotions now, I think they’re temporary."
Like ? Another one disappointed in Li Peifeng and decided to leave? Then you’d better not be like , turning back not long after...
He Ying pondered over it and said softly, "Actually, minor emotions also need to be addressed. Temporarily avoiding them may seem easy, but one day these things will co back like background programs, occupying our ntal space."
"So?"
"So we should clean up our ntal space promptly, organize the things we’ve been procrastinating on, streamline the relationships that drain us, cut what needs to be cut."
He Ying pursed her lips and smiled, "Avoid consuming your ntal energy, completely extract yourself, and turn to what you want to do, living the life you should live."
"...You’re right."
Huang Tianxuan drank another sip of water, put down the cup, and smiled without aning, "But there’s still so regret, a feeling of powerlessness that I can only let nature take its course. You should understand, how did you resolve it at the ti?"
"Resolution is a distant goal, but understanding is right at hand."
