I know I'm really sensitive to this topic, and it may be that I'm overreacting here. But I don't understand this double standard. If people talk about domestic violence or any other type of abuse, people don't immediately jump in and start saying it's rare or talk about who initiated it, etc. All of which I have read on this forum. It's true that it's not the norm. It's true that most therapists are ethical. I have a therapist who would never, ever think of doing of doing this to a client. Her husband is also a therapist and I know he would not do it either. Most don't do it, but some do. In fact The walk-in clinic in Minnesota specializes in treating patients who have been through this. Unfortunately, those therapists that work there are not without clients.
