I think that one of the most serious things that a "bad" therapist can do is to make us think/believe that all therapists act like they do...they "influence" us to think that we're not worth it, or that we can't find the help we really need...

I went through I think like 7 not so great to downright bad therapist before I found the right one for ME right now.... I've been with him for over 4 years now. He finally taught me what a good therapist for ME looks like...safe, trustworthy, sensitive, insightful, wise, loving, good listener, and truthful.

Not everyone needs the same kind of therapist...there are tons to choose from even if it is a drive.... If after 5-6 sessions, you realize that there is just something really wrong, then begin the search again. I stayed with many far too long.

Obviously the unethical therapists or ones that cross legal and professional boundaries are to be reported or just fired immediately...
