Closed minded.
It helps to be on the same wave length philosophically, share some core ideas. It is very hard to find good ones and finally at age 60, I got one. (while insured. yey) In the past I had lots of experience and most were horrible. One offered massage(?)she was not bad looking either. Therapy, nowadays can come from various sources, with practitioners having varied educational and work history. I am sorry to say this is not an easy task to hunt for one who is worth it.

I'd do a poll, but the list of options is probably endless.
For me, defensiveness. They have to be able to take criticism.
