DICTATION - 2 [VIDEO]

[drabsolutelynot]

Hello, everyone, I just have a brief announcement. 

[Rosen is sitting at his table in the clinic and if you think he might look a bit worse for wear its not just you. He's got bags under his eyes and his hair is sticking up in odd places from rubbing his fingers through it to try and massage away some of the tension in his scalp.]

I have unexpectedly found myself as one of the lead staffers here in the clinic, so I should introduce myself to any of you who are new or who I haven't met yet. My name is Dr. Lee Rosen, you can call me Lee or Dr. Rosen whatever you feel more comfortable with. I am a certified general physician as well as specialized in neurology and psychiatry, however due to personal reasons I am currently not taking any counseling patients. I am instead referring them elsewhere, there are other mental health professionals here who are highly qualified and ready to help so if you are interested in that kind of assistance please feel free to contact me for further information.

Other than that I try to make myself available in the clinic as much as possible for injuries or illnesses, so you can usually find me there.

[He sits up a bit in his chair before continuing]

I also need to check who is still on staff with the clinic. Kate left me some information but I would appreciate an informal roll-call if that is possible so that I have an idea of who is still around. I am also interested in hearing from anyone who might be eager to volunteer. If any of the new arrivals have medical training we can always use more help. 

And I think that is all I needed to say. So, thank you for your time.

[He supposes this is as good a time as any considering the events of the past few days and Rosen's recent post, so...

Lance is looking more put together than he has recently, although he hasn't completely returned to the formal look; he has bothered with a suit but not with a tie, and his hair's getting slightly out of control and distinctly curly. He also looks a bit like he's either gotten too little sleep or too much, although his voice is steady and even and he certainly sounds more professional than he did in his last post.]

Due to recent events, and in followup to Dr. Rosen's announcement, I think this is a good time to reiterate that should anyone be in need of someone to speak to about anything that may be bothering them, I'm always available for counseling or just to talk.

[He's gotten the impression this is something a whole lot of people here probably need, and it's important to make sure they're aware of the option and don't have to go hunting for information on who to contact.]

My name is Dr. Lance Sweets and I'm a clinical psychologist, which, for those whose worlds don't have such a profession, means that I work with helping individuals work through any mental or emotional issues they might be having. Although I've counseled patients on a range of subjects, my primary work has been with the FBI and therefore often in the area of coping with witnessing or experiencing traumatic events.

[Which is fortunate, since there seems to be a lot of that here. Which, itself, is unfortunate.]

Meetings can be as formal or informal as you're comfortable with, and where we speak can also be decided upon on an individual basis. I'm also willing to answer any questions you might have before making any agreements or arrangements.

[Because he's very aware that a whole lot of people don't get the idea of psychology at all, and he's also expecting at least a few 'aren't you twelve?' comments.]
