Thank you tametc
Looks as though psychotherapists are a pretty rare breed here in Australia also. I took it for granted after 20 years of seeing my former therapist that not many therapists are prepared to invest so much of their time and concentrated effort into helping their patients. I suppose that's the reason I became so close to him. He knew absolutely everything about me.
Even if i could find a decent psychotherapist I've been advised that if i do decide to stand up in court and testify against my former therapist I should keep my current therapist onside. Keeping in mind that this is going to be a lengthy and drawn out case I dont see how im going to be able to seek the help that i so desperately require.
