But since correlation - again - does not equal causation, the only thing we can say is that some therapists are unethical, and whether they are in solo practice or group practice, they will have the opportunity to prey on their clients. |
I think it's important to look at the research though, and the research does state that as many as 80% of offending psychologists are in private, solo practice. They also tend to be male, older and parentified (father figures to female clients):
