I see no reason to address this one kiss
But you did, and that's why we addressed it.

I gave my opinion.
It's an unethical act for a therapist to kiss a client.
The kiss *is* the red flag. It *never* should have happened - ever!

If it were me, I'd change therapists immediately, and I'd inform the person running the clinic, (or whatever operation it is you go to), of what happened. That's me.
But, I stand by my opinion.
The behavior - the kiss - was an unethical act by the therapist.

Perhaps *you* are capable of standing up for yourself.
What of others who are not?
Is it ok for the therapist to seduce them because they are vulnerable?
(A rhetorical question, of course.)

See, *that's* why the kiss is a red flag,
and *that's* why the behavior is unethical.
It can - and it often does - lead to other,
and more dispicable behavior.

I'll address this issue no further.
I wish you well.

Peace!
