Who would study psychology if they didn't have some kind of problem?

Chapter 195, come and take a look!

In an instant, it seemed as if a gust of wind had gathered and rushed out of the office through the door that Nan Zhuren had opened.

An inexplicable sense of seriousness surged within me.

Nan Zhuren looked at the teachers in the office: one man and four women, a total of five people.

Observing their expressions.

Four of the female teachers, after a brief moment of enjoyment, quickly changed their expressions, becoming just like the only male teacher—the one in charge of the center.

Nan Zhuren had seen this expression on Weng Pingting's and Teacher Hu's faces before; it was an expression that said, "I think you have a problem, and I want to do something about it."

After a moment's thought, Nan Zhuren completely understood why they had such thoughts.

However, just like when facing Weng Pingting, Nan Zhuren had no intention of explaining. In this situation, the more she explained, the more likely she was to deepen the misunderstanding; she could only try to reverse it through her subsequent actions.

Moreover, in a sense, it makes things easier for others to have this kind of thinking about you.

Of course, the premise is that we cannot be too unscrupulous and further reinforce their stereotypes about us.

……

"I didn't expect everyone to come," Nan Zhuren said.

Hearing Nan Zhuren's opening greeting.

Teacher Bai immediately laughed: "Teacher Li and Teacher Ye just finished class, unlike me who is so free every day."

Nan Zhuren then gave a standard social smile, as if he had received a response after exchanging pleasantries, and nodded with a touch of obedience befitting a junior.

However, his words did not achieve the desired effect.

Although I know the surnames of the two new teachers, I still can't connect their faces with their titles, and there might be some problems when we get to know each other later.

So Nan Zhuren added another greeting as he walked inside.

"Are there still so many classes? What kind of classes are they?"

This statement hits right where it hurts young teachers.

Nan Zhuren immediately noticed a female teacher, who appeared to have just graduated with a master's degree but already exuded the air of a teacher, complaining:
"It's still those same messy classes. Professor Ye teaches 'Entrepreneurship Guidance,' and I teach military theory."

Although they were complaints, they were brief and to the point, still falling within the realm of small talk.

Nan Zhuren also learned how to address everyone by name, nodding in response as she walked towards her workstation.

Four female teachers and one male teacher listened attentively to Nan Zhuren's tone of voice, their eyes sweeping across his face and observing his body language as he moved.

Two of the young female teachers spent an unusually long time looking at the faces, which meant they didn't observe the movements much.

But no matter how they observed or what they were observing, after Nan Zhuren sat down, all five of them showed expressions of confusion.

[Teacher Li: ?]

[Teacher Ye: Doesn't Teacher Nan seem a little too normal?]

[Teacher Li: Did he really do four consultations in a row this afternoon?]

The four teachers staring at their phone screens all wore expressions of confusion.

[Teacher Xue: Absolutely true. I arrived when he did his very first consultation.]

[Teacher Li: Even if I only did one consultation, I would be in a more fragmented state than he is now.]

[Teacher Bai: When he finished the first two consultations, he wasn't in as good a condition as he is now.] He looked slightly tired after the first two consultations, but after the next two, he was full of energy. What's the reason for this?
Is this someone going to provide consultation or someone being consulted?

Even being consulted takes energy.

[Teacher Ye: Were the two things he did later just the simplest listening and counseling?]

Teacher Li: It's hard to say.

[Teacher Xue: It's not logical. Listening for two hours will tire you out; there's no reason why you'll feel more energized the longer you listen.]

[Teacher Ye: Could it be that he's been constantly confiding in his clients, and they've become the ones healing him?]

[Teacher Xue: Isn't thinking like that a bit of an exaggeration?]

The female teachers looked at Nan Zhuren with some suspicion.

Nan Zhuren calmly organized the materials under this gaze, suddenly...

"We may need to create a separate file for that visitor and then notify the college."

The sudden sound in the quiet office startled the teacher in charge of the center, who had been hesitating about how to strike up a conversation with Nan Zhuren, and gave her a strange feeling of being taken advantage of.

But he quickly realized: "Create a file? Notify the college?"

It grasped the key words that a center leader should grasp.

"Yes, this visitor is an exception to the confidentiality rule and must be closely monitored by the college's counselors. If necessary, they should be transferred to a professional mental health center as soon as possible."

Nan Zhuren nodded and added, "There's also the second girl who came this afternoon. Her situation isn't as serious, so we don't need to escalate it to the college level for now, but we can select an assistant from our center to specifically follow up and observe her—I already told Xia Tian about that."

"I feel it's necessary to tell you about these situations and report them to you."

Nan Zhuren handed the two files to the teacher in charge at the center.

The fourth visitor's case is absolutely beyond the school's ability to handle. He requires the most professional and systematic evaluation, and may even need medication. This is an absolute exception to the confidentiality rules.

The second client, who was involved in a third-party relationship with the counselor, was actually alright, but since the decision was made to follow up and observe, it was necessary to make things clear to the person in charge.

Although there is a significant difference in ability, the teacher in charge of the center at Jiangda Psychological Center actually holds a similar position to Weng Pingting at Yannuo Psychological Center.

[Teacher Ye: Really? We've encountered such a serious situation as a confidentiality exception?]

[Teacher Xue: There's another case that needs to be observed and monitored, indicating a possibility of it worsening, but a cautious approach has been chosen.]

The gazes of the other four teachers followed the file that Nan Zhuren handed out and eventually shifted to the teacher in charge of the center.

They weren't in charge, so they couldn't see it.

[Teacher Bai: Old Hei's face has changed, and changed very quickly.]

Then, the teacher in charge of the center coughed, put away the second visitor's file, and then said to Teacher Bai:
"Teacher Bai, could you please take a look at this file... Never mind, let's all take a look. It'll be good if he reschedules your consultations later, so we can all be prepared and keep an eye out."

In cases of obvious confidentiality exceptions, the files are essentially unsealed once they are inside the consultation center.

Given this client's situation, it's definitely at the level of triggering the ultimate alarm in psychological counseling.

The other four teachers came over and took a look, and then their bodies froze.

They no longer needed to communicate in chat groups; at that moment, all four of them simultaneously had the same thought:
How could I possibly encounter a visitor like this?

Did I encounter this type of client after completing three consecutive consultations?
After treating this type of client, how come he was still in such good condition?!
