She did not say I had hurt her, just it was possible for clients to hurt her. I do not want a wussy therapist who wears their heart on their sleeve (I am not saying anyone here has that kind of therapist - just that I do not want one). I want one who is impervious to clients and who remembers it is a business relationship and that it is not personal. And I do want a therapist who is careful. I assume if the therapist finds a client abusive, they will tell the client to leave. I expect the therapist to take care of themselves and not be affected by clients. I usually ask when I interview them on the phone and at the first appointment.
