My therapist started telling me all the time that she loved me and how much she thought of me when we weren't in session. I never reciprocated any response. I know I did love her in a therapeutic way and I believe that's the way she felt about me. I also believe that is why she unethically and inappropriately terminated me without explanation. She said that she could no longer support me in my decisions and cancelled all of my remaining appointments. Talk about a stinger that hurts. It's been one year and I currently have a competent and ethical therapist but constantly fight the attachment response because of being hurt so badly. I now believe no therapist should ever say that to a client! I wish she never would have said that.
