I see two separate psychodynamic therapists at the same time and have done so for over 3 years. They know that I see other therapists but do not interact nor do I speak to one about the other. It works much better for me than just seeing one. I am not pulled in different directions, they are not played against each other, I am not confused by their differences, I do not go to either for advice so there is no conflict there, and the world has not collapsed because I see them both. Each is better at some things than the other. The only drawback I have experienced in seeing two is the financial expense.

It is also quite possible and usual to try out other therapists while seeing the first one or taking a break from the first one to try out some others.
