I think self comfort comes in many forms and that to me is what any sort of self injury is. I would not care about it one way or the other if a therapist had scars or fresh wounds/bruises etc because I don't see it as a bad thing. I am perfectly willing to judge a therapist about any number of things, but scars and self injury are not one of them. I do not think it would be good to have them be visible mostly because of the reactions people posted here - I am in the minority on this sort of thing it seems.
