I have been trying a couple of sites that offer e- therapy.
I had a first session last week with a male e-therapist
He straight away asked me what I had done to cause the bully to bully me. What had I done to cause the man to bully me.
I was really taken aback by this.
It felt like victim blaming to me
the man has later explained that he was bullied and LET the bully bully him. So he wanted to help me notice what I did to cause it to happen.
I was bullied by a psychopath who is notorious for bullying woman and no matter how I tried to stand up to him, confront it, he just kept going.
What I did to make it happen more is that I defiantly did not leave my work and I did not cower and I did not let him get away with it.
In the end, he sacked me anyway, for standing up to him.
I think this mode of therapeutic approach is suspect. What do you all think?
