To me it feels nigh impossible to be open about seeing two therapists at the same time, idk, I feel like I'd be saying "You aren't good enough," to both.
I saw 2 for about 5.5 years. It was the only way any of it would have been tolerable to me. The truth is -neither was good enough alone. They both professed to be psychodynamic but one was useful for some things and the other was useful for other things. I never talked about one to the other - that was not my point in hiring them.
