What is everyones idea of unethical?
I thought my ex-T was killing me by holding back outside contact after a year of constantly checking in on me between sessions through skype, emails, almost daily to completely stopping. It was gut wrenching.
To me that was damaging and unethical.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
