I disagree with this. The most important thing (along side the connection of course) is that the T has the support of a peer group / supervisor who have expertise and experience with dissociative disorders. How else are T's new to the field going to gain the expertise everyone seems to insist on, if they are denied experience? My T is excellent, and I know he has a good support network, and I know Im the first he has had to deal with. I never would have guessed that until he told me.

If your T has no support network with Dissociative Disorders experience, and a supervisor with no experience, and they show no understanding of the condition or willingness to learn, then of course - move on!
