Thanks. Yes, I agree to that and even if I understand the logics behind a T being able to treat "anyone" regardless of religion or political views I also think politics do have some importance.


As an example my T doesn´t seem to be a person who is very politically active but she still might have opinions I would find hard to accept.


How did you find out about your therapists political views? Did you ask them or did they tell you themselves?

I don´t think my T would answer if I asked her about her political view, she has integrity at the same time as she´s a warm person. She´s not rigid but I notice she, as me, knows well where to place her steps and not.

I assume my therapists share my political beliefs and that's always turned out to be true.
