I think it really depends on where the individual is in treatment and their specific relationship with their therapist.
I generally think that therapists are only human and make mistakes. How the mistake impacts the individual depends on the individual and their place in treatment and how they deal with it. I know for me personally, when my t makes mistakes, I try to work through it and make note of it, but not let that instance define how I see my t- I guess I try to see our relationship as a whole, and not let one mistake define how I see t. But that's just me.
I know that I've been in a bad place and t had made a mistake and it felt like te world was crumbling. So I really think it depends on the indivial and where they are in treatment.
As for forgiveness, i forgive but I don't forget
