I don’t think that it’s a given, no. I think that therapists should go to therapy to work out their issues, but that doesn’t correlate to them being a good therapist.
Example A: RoboT. He mentioned frequently that he’s been in therapy for 30+ years, and yet couldn’t do the basics of leaving his s*** out of the room with me. I don’t think he’s like that with all of his clients, but I think I just elicited that countertransference.
