I feel like my original T lied to me by omission about 7 yrs ago. I was referred, by a psychologist, to a male Psy-D that lived in my area. I called him to see if he was accepting pts and to set up an appt. When he returned my call, he said that he was going to refer me, without seeing me, to a female therapist who was a Social Worker and that he knew that I'd be in "good hands" with her. So I spent 5 years with this female T until I was diagnosed with DID and starting working with a new DID T. Come to find out, the female T I had been working with was actually the Wife of the male T who referred me to her. She never told me that and she never wore a ring on her finger. I spent 5 yrs thinking that she was single, due to some other comments she had made.

I'm not sure why....but I just feel so hurt and irritated by this. She had been attempting to build her practice and I feel like I was just passed off as a business strategy now. It's weird how it hurts my feelings now.
