IMNSHPAPO I think you should drop the current T anyway. You don't respect him (i.e. you call him the "old man" and you consider yourself cheating on him, and you are seeking someone else to give you the therapy you want, not what the T is providing). I think that relationship is done and there will not be any trust there --for a long time if ever.

So take your medicine. But at least discuss this with the current T. That's the adult thing to do. You are taking your therapy treatment path into your own hand, a big step, so surely you can tell the current T respectfully.

I will say this only this one more time here: It is not a personal consideration by a current T to "demand" you see only one therapist at a time. It's good therapeutic practice that some might not understand. If a T shows anger, then it's because they are concerned for YOU, not having hurt feelings because of what you did. It's cowardly and unprofessional to do an end run in such secret.

I personally worry about what the current T is helping you with that you had to run away. I wish you well with your new course of therapy, and hope it works for you, or that if it doesn't you realize it quickly so you can get back on track to heal.

I truly wish you well.
