Yes, I see to that aspect, the experience. My former T was a psychologist, not "just" a therapist and sheŽd worked for over 30 years within the field. She never talked about AS or such diagnosis. This T who speculated around diagnoses has much less experience and her main education isnŽt within mental health care.
But what upsets me of course is the way she acted, talking about diagnoses after just two sessions and then leaving me by with thoughts and worries.

It is just years of experience in the field. You start seeing things what others don't
My t told me what traits she observes in me upon first meeting me. ( no it's not ASD) It wasn't formal diagnosis but it was very accurate. She spent 50 minutes with me. She is on her mid 60s and had ton of experience. She knew. No one else before her ever said a thing. It doesn't mean she is wrong
