When trying out other therapists following destructive therapy, I felt like I was painted into a corner. I needed to say whatever I felt, and that included criticizing the previous therapist AND questioning therapy as a whole. But few of them appeared ready to tolerate this. Some of them almost instinctively tried to blame me, in an indirect way. Or they would suggest we talk about my underlying "issues" rather than what happened in therapy. I think this is quite a dangerous predicament. I can see how many clients would end up editing their thoughts, suppressing their anger, placating the new therapist to avoid trouble.
