I've seen 5 Ts and none of them turned on me or abandoned me. I hope it isn't as common as one would think after reading this forum. I think it is terrible! Is it that those with reputable Ts don't have a need to post while those with bad experiences want and need support? That's understandable to me. I also would like to hear from the Ts who read and/or post here. What do you think of these accounts of therapists' apparent cruelty to their clients? Are there any reliable statistics about how often it happens? I would think not, since Ts seem to blame their clients and don't take responsibility for their actions. I think it's appalling the way those in a helping profession have acted. I'm not talking about sexual abuse, though that's horrible too.
