Hi Jane,

You said she mentioned it "in passing"...I don't see that as the same thing as talking badly of another client. Perhaps she was just trying to give you an explanation as to where her concerns about email lie, and that was why she mentioned it?

I understand why you are feeling cautious about this new T...it can be incredibly painful losing a great therapist (been there, done that) and venturing into unknown territory with a new one. Do you think perhaps you are looking for a reason to reject her before she rejects you? I don't think she will, btw, but I am wondering if you are afraid that she will (consciously or unconsciously).
