I've always seen female therapists previously (I'm female) but I just switched to a male therapist. A lot of my issues relate back to past sexual abuse and less than ideal situations. I know I'll have to talk through this stuff quite a bit to resolve things, but have no idea how to bring it up or if I even should yet. I chose to see a male therapist so I could work on trusting men and feeling safe with them (I only feel 100% safe with my husband). This therapist seems nice so far and doesn't give off any creepy vibes, but I still don't know how he'd respond. I don't want to make him uncomfortable and I wonder if I should wait til I've been seeing him longer to develop more trust, but at the same time I know it will prob be awkward no matter when it's done. Any advice appreciated, thanks!
