He said he knows now not to talk about other clients with me. Trash talking then yeah we both agree. I feel really sick right now. The call and the emergency session should be signs of caring? Why do I feel like he is screwing with my emotions? I want to trust that he cares but I. Feeling paranoid that he’s trying to hurt me.

Wait...isn't he the one who crossed the boundary by accepting the candy? It takes two to tango, etc., and the therapist is the one leading the dance.
And "he knows now not to talk about other clients with me"? That's really not the issue. He shouldn't be discussing them in detail at all. I've had therapists mention other clients to me a couple of times, but never critically. And then how do you know he's not talking about you to other clients?
Really sorry, growly. I hope it works out, somehow. I might be breaking up with Info tonight, so I sympathize.
