[QUOTE=amandalouise;5271437]myrto heres something that might help....

here in the USA therapists have rights too. they do not have to sit there and listen to a client constantly telling them how bad they hurt them. "

This is not universal as a process or timeline in the united states. Those therapist people may not have to do so, but often they will. The ones I see are solo practitioners - there is no supervisor. They have never threatened to get a restraining order nor have they tried to tell me I cannot talk about their failings after only two attempts. I have spent more than two appointments on failures by the therapist. Hell, with the first one, I have spent almost 6 years doing so.
I would not work with one who tried to limit me on that. I have read books by those people who indicate that they often spend a great number of appointments with clients who want to continue to talk about the therapists failings. And they recognize it can be important for a client to do it until the client is ready - not on the therapist's time table.
