I am NOT saying that people who have been abused should stay silent. It is very important that people who have been abused have a voice.
My post was to assure people that it is very very rare to be abused by a psychotherapist. There are many safeguards in place. Indeed it is their job to help people who have been abused. I don't want people not seeking therapy because they fear they may be abused again.
Again, I'll state it is extremely rare for a T to abuse a patient in this way.
