Authoritarian personality/no attention span

We went to our second counseling session w Dominique Nerestan today. I feel like she does a good job hearing and reflecting back what we are saying. I told her about the thing with the wine festival. We talked about it for a long time. A couple of things of note were when she asked JJ, "how could Amy have communicated with you in a way that you could hear her? I mean--do you want to hear what she has to say?" He stalled for a long time, saying, "well..." He communicated a lot to me in that long pause. He said, "I don't have the attention span. She just goes on and on." I was telling her that I had asked him to say, "What's up? Why is the wine festival stressing you out? What are your concerns?" He said, "you see? She is always telling me what to do and say, she's volatile with an authoritarian personality." I said, "what were some quotes, JJ? Can you retell the story?" I said, "Details are not your friend, are they?"
