So I´ve been trying out a new therapist to go to after my sessions run out with my current T.

I went there 3 times and the 4th session now I had to cancel because I was out sick. I didn´t feel bad 2 days in advance so it was a sort of short notice cancellation.

She wrote me an email and said if I missed a therapy sessions for being sick in future she will need a doctor´s note about it.

I found that quite odd. Does any of your Ts do demand that?

I have heard about Ts making you pay for the session if you don´t abide the cancellation policy which I get, but a doctor´s note?

I feel like I´m back in school with that arrangement and MOST important,
I expect my therapist to "believe" me what I tell him and also when I tell him that I am sick. If he´s making me pay for the session, okay, but demanding doctor´s note? I think its weird and sort of in the way of having a trusting relationship, like otherwise I´d cancel for no reason at all. Which I would never do with therapy.....

But what do you think...?
