Ms. Jones,

Hello. My name is Dr. George Anderson. I am one of the many psychologists on the island and a good friend of you mothers. I hope this letter reaches you well. Though I do not usually reach out to individuals on the island, your mother has expressed concern as to your well being as of late.

I was wondering if I could perhaps schedule you for an appointment. I promise you that it will not take long. I will not pressure you into telling me things you do not want to say. I only feel as though this may be a good outlet for you to express yourself in a safe and confidential environment.

If you do feel as though you may want to proceed with this, please give my secretary a call, and she will get you all set up. Again, this is completely up to you. Together, we may be able to discuss what you're going through and perhaps be able to sort things out.

Sincerely,
Dr. George Anderson

Mr. Enders,

Hello. I am Dr. George Anderson, one of the psychologists on the island. I'm writing you to send you my formal condolences over the death of your father. I know I gave you my condolences in person on the day of his service, but I felt it necessary to make it official.

Also, I would like to invite you to my office at your earliest convenience. I feel it is important to ensure that you are coping well with the situation. This is strictly your choice, though I would really like to at least spend a few minutes talking to you if possible.

If this is not ideal for you, please let me know and perhaps we can work something else out. I hope all is well, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
Dr. George Anderson
