Dr. Carl M. Burlington- so why are you here today Molly?
Molly- I am not quite sure.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- Do you want to be here?
Molly- I am not quite sure.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- Do you want to get better?
Molly- I am not quite sure I can.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- Your mother is worried about you.
Molly- 5 second pause. ( I am aware.)
Dr. Carl M. Burlington-Tell me about your sister?
Molly- I love my sister she is my best friend.
Dr.Carl M. Burlington- What is her name?
Molly- Anna, Anna is her name.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- What is your first memory of your sister?
Molly- Well that is a silly question sir because I was just a baby.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- What is your first memory?
Molly- We were playing and it was raining. (7 second pause) (sigh) Anna wanted to play in the mud but i didn't. I was very small and cold. She told me she would take me inside and that we would play hide and go seek. She said we would play this game all the time and that I would never be without her. Anna is a very kind sister and has always looked after me. (pause) well not today.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- What do you mean not today?
Molly- She didn't come with me sir. She said she couldn't leave and that I had to come back to her.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- What do your parents think about your sister?
Molly- They love Anna but they have been worried about me and haven't been paying any attention to her. My father made a joke a few weeks ago and asked me who she was. It is funny that they would mess with me.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- Do you see Anna every day?
Molly- She is my sister. I see her all the time. In the morning and at night and even sometimes in my dreams.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- Do you have nightmares every night?
Molly- I don't know. My mother wakes me from what she calls a night terror. I am covered in sweat and I have even woken to her holding down my arms. I cant remember the dreams or how long they last but I know I am scared.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- Does Anna appear in your nightmares?
Molly- I do remember a few night mares and Anna has been only in one. The dream starts out in our new house and the lights are flickering all around me. My room is at the top of the stairs but no matter how hard I climb and how fast I cant reach the top. I am slipping and falling into the basement. Anna is at the top of the stairs screaming and yelling for me. She is holding out her hands but once I reach for her the Dark Mirror is before me and my hand is pressed up against the glass gazing into my reflection and I am frozen. Then I wake up.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- Do you have this dream a lot?
Molly- I've had it a few times.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- what does Anna look like?
Molly- She looks like me.
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- That will be all for today Molly. I will see you next week.
Molly-will you ask me about my parents next week instead of my sister?
Dr. Carl M. Burlington- Maybe.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Allen
Here is a short copy of my first session with Molly. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call me at my office phone number you received by email. I will diagnosis Molly next session and work more with her. I am confident more work with her will benefit her condition.
