Sigh, they certainly are just people and they don't always keep up with the current information either. They get in their own style treatment plans and form their own opinions and often get settled.

I find it very unsettling sometimes because I will do my own research. I expect to sit across from someone who is more educated and prepared to address me from a much higher level. I find it very disheartening when I present questions and information that the therapist truely doesn't know.

My therapist before the one I have now was a herion addict/ alcoholic admitted habitual lier with narcisistic tendencies and also openly admitted his maturity level was way behind because of his addictions. And he was my therapist? Whoa, that didn't help my PTSD at all. I tried to get him to write a letter to my GP so I could get refills without spending a lot of money to get refills. Well, he never wrote the letter and my GP looked at me like I was the crazy one. I remembered that he did admitt being a habitual lier so I will never know if the dipolomas on his wall were real or not.
