Yes, but not about cancellations. They even lie on their websites. I don't care as long as it's not something that interferes with my interactions with them heavily and repeatedly. I personally don't believe that therapist are, or can be, really truthful with clients - the whole construct of therapy does not allow it much IMO. But yes, making up that reason for canceling an appointment is pretty silly and unnecessary and, for me, kinda degrades the seriousness of losing a family member. Mine cancelled appointments due to travel and vacation, and once due to the elections (he apparently was going to vote during my session time). Not last minute though.

The kind of unnecessary excuses that bother me with one of my Ts were about why he did not respond to my emails earlier. Totally unnecessary as I never rushed him or complained. Told him once that perhaps some other clients need those explanations and apologies but I disliked them and found them unnecessary and did not need an explanation. He never did it again.
