I feel the need to defend Growli a little bit.

I don't know that LCM should've warned Growli ahead of time. But I do think that LCM is in over her head and she should not have recommended that Growli see her boyfriend as a psychiatrist!

This is crazy! Moreso than the money, I'd be worried about the pillow talk. LCM isn't bound to the confidentiality of a real therapist. Not only that, confidentiality breaks down in the quiet privacy between lovers. It just does. It's asking Growli too much to ask her to trust that they won't talk about her or discuss her private matters, with each other.

Not only that, LCM betrayed Growli by recommending a doctor with whom LCM has a lover-connection. It's wrong. LCM even knows it is wrong, which is why she's being so cheeky about disclosing it. Otherwise, she would'v said, "Full disclosure, I have a personal relationship with this person that I don't want to go into details about. If that makes you uncomfortable, here are three other psychiatrists to try . . . "

LCM is in over her head. My fear is she's going to be looking for ways out of this relationship soon. I don't see her as in it for the long haul or the hard work.

I realize that Growli objects to any criticism of LCM, so I'm not going to win brownie points, but I think this person is unethical.
