Depends on religion, but not really. I would be a little uncomfortable, but that's it. I guess I was not completely clear, but I generally don't care what other person's beliefs are. That's not beliefs I'm talking about. It's if and how she applies them. If she uses some questionable techniques in her "other" work, I have the right to be worried it may somehow creep into my therapeutic process. It's my mental health we're talking about. If you need heart or brain surgery, would you go to a surgeon who practices psychic surgery on the side? Or some other unconventional techniques? And claims that they work?

I thought about this and how she may be not the person I imagine her to be. Thank you for your reply.

It has little bearing on her skills as a therapist. Advertising is full of utter gumf, irrelevance, nonsensical catchphrases they use to catch unsuspecting punters. The life coaching business is no difference, if that is what she is involved with.

Yeah, I think this might be the case. I'll know more when I talk to her.
