There is a smattering of articles and blogs on this topic, seemingly all written by T's and all making the same points -- it's a bad idea, client privacy might be compromised, T's cant respond so it is one-sided, it's too open format and there's nothing to ensure relevant criteria are included, reviewing a therapist is far different from a plumber or mechanic.

But mostly the reasoning appears to be about protecting the T from client honesty. Seems to me the trepidation and fear among T's could be in direct proportion to how much they have to hide.

Clients are urged to see formal grievance as their only recourse. But this is a rigged process that potentially keeps power in the hands of the profession.

Why not use a simple, direct, immediate tool (Yelp or similar sites) that gives the client the ability to restore the balance of power?

I also found that my primary ex T is not on Yelp. Are business owners able to keep themselves off Yelp?
Thanks for this!
