If you call a provider in private practice, the provider may
answer or you may reach their voicemail. If you choose to leave a
voicemail, you could try simply saying, "Hello, my name is
so-and-so and I’m calling to speak with someone about
scheduling an appointment. I can be reached at…" Most
mental health professionals will give you a call back within a
few business days. If or when you speak with someone on the
phone, you may even use the same line as you did on the voicemail
to start the conversation ("Hello, my name is so-and-so and
I am calling to speak with someone about scheduling an
appointment."). In either case, you may also be greeted
initially by prompts that will direct you more specifically to a
person that can help you make an appointment.
Every office will have its own way of getting some key
information from you before scheduling the first appointment.

■次号予告
Depressed and shy: Finding the courage to get help-4-
'Will I wake up?' 'There's a 50:50 chance.' In March 2020,
Michael Rosen became unwell. Soon he was struggling to breathe,
and he was admitted to hospital with coronavirus. What followed
was months on the wards: a month in an induced coma, and weeks of
rehab and recovery as the NHS saved his life, and then got him
back on his feet. Throughout it all, a diary was kept at the end
of Michael's bed, where his nurses wrote him letters of hope and
support. And as soon as he was awake, he was ready to start
writing his own story. Combining stunning new prose poems by one
of Britain's best loved poets and the moving coronavirus diaries
of his nurses, and featuring original illustrations by Chris
Riddell, this is a beautiful book about love, life and the NHS
that celebrates the power of community and the indomitable
spirits of the people who keep us well.
(amazon.com)
When a top-secret weapon falls into mercenary hands, wild card
CIA agent Mason "Mace" Brown will need to join forces
with rival badass German agent Marie, former MI6 ally and
cutting-edge computer specialist Khadijah, and skilled Colombian
psychologist Graciela on a lethal, breakneck mission to retrieve
it, while also staying one-step ahead of a mysterious woman, Lin
Mi Sheng, who is tracking their every move. As the action rockets
around the globe from the cafes of Paris to the markets of
Morocco to the wealth and glamour of Shanghai, the quartet of
women will forge a tenuous loyalty that could protect the
world-or get them killed.
