One guy I saw 4 times felt he lacked sufficient attachment background. He was a Harvard educated PsyD. What?

Later, ex T strongly recommended her own therapist. I called her and she was not accepting new clients.

The whole thing became a sort of farce. I tried or interviewed several other Ts that were not referrals. Just didnt work. Even the thought now of speaking to a T fills me with disgust and dread.
I can't believe your T actually referred you to her own T. Slight conflict of interest there, I think.

How does a T think they lack sufficient attachment background? Even if a T doesn't practice "attachment therapy" (which many don't), attachment is something a T should understand conceptually.
