having 2 therapists can be tricky in several ways. payment and loyalty are 2 offhand. I tried having 2 but the 2nd one was not happy that I didn't tell her about the first one when I initially contacted her to be my therapist. the first one was for a particular type of therapy however she is out of state and I need a local one regardless of going to the first. the first one was ok with working with the local one. the first one I really connected to and preferred much more than the 2nd. 2nd one was like don't contact me till you are done with her. so I stayed with the first one for a while till I got into a crisis then had to leave her and go with someone at a nearby agency who I felt took me away from her (only allowed me to have 1 final session with her) and I was upset and felt resentful. only lasted there about 5 months and found my current therapist. I love her just like I loved the out of state one, probably more though as I have been going to her longer. I do talk to her about both good and bad previous therapists that I have had. She helps explain things about why the therapist did what they did so that I understand why that previous therapist did what she shouldn't have.

sorry this is very long. thanks for reading.

hope things work out for those who have 2 therapists. I think the norm is that the therapists would prefer that client was not going to someone in addition to them.
