At least one provider thinks there's a lot of patient-blaming:

And how many times have clients been accused, including by other clients here, of not committing wanting to change or failing to look hard enough for the right therapist? In my opinion these rebukes directly imitate of what the therapy industry tells clients.

A book published in 2013 about ethics complaints, Red Flags in Psychotherapy, revives decades-old material from James Groves about the four types of "hateful patients." The book then presents a number of composite case studies of complaining clients, depicting them, particularly the women, as low-IQ cartoonish bimbos (in my opinion.) Worse is Lawrence Hedges's "Facing the Challenges of Liability in Psychotherapy," comparing a psych plaintiff both to a witch and Nazi gestapo.

When I searched writings about the negative effects of psychotherapy I found almost nothing, even less for consumers. (Terms would include iatrogenesis, adverse outcome, deterioration effect.) Much discussion I saw blamed clients, albeit in a high-toned, clinical way with terms like resistance, projection, non-compliance, negative transference and narcissism.

I've seen therapists so enmeshed in theory that they overlook the simple reality of their own absolute, autocratic behavior. If the lack of literature about harm is any indication, there appears of a trend by psychotherapists to avoid considering their mistakes.
