Tom- I wasnt sure whether to respond to this thread or not. I usually dont get into it. I had the same experience with a male therapist. I am (almost) 51 and I was seeing a therapist for 10 yrs when I was in my 20s. He was a "free thinking" love the one youre with kind of guy who I adored. The relationship became sexual soon after beginning therapy with him. I was young and adoring and didnt have a clue as to boundaries. The fact that he did help me in many ways confused me as well. The whole thing leaves me confused.

But it was a long time ago and my life is very different today. I didnt think for a second about contacting any professional organization about this. I dont want to go there with myself or with him.

I should say, though, that talking about it with another therapist did help me to understand what and why things should not have happened as they did.
