Good therapists genuinely care about their clients, because that's our job. We care about helping them help themselves. You can't be in this profession and not care (well, I should say, they shouldn't be in the profession if they don't care about people) Sure, there's clients that are harder to *LIKE* than others. But that doesn't mean that the T does not care. If there's a client that the T can't move past not liking, and it's getting in the way of therapeutic work, yes, mostly likely they are referred because that would be damaging to the client. As cats said, T's aren't paid to care, but we do.
