Wow. It's when I hear that these things happen with therapists, it makes me wonder if seeing a therapist really is a good idea, when all is said and done. So many people are unjustly damaged by therapists (I sure was). Is the damage they can do worth it? I'm not entirely convinced.

Yup. Totally agree. I think what was harder for me was going back into my regular personal life and explaining to my very small inner circle, why I felt betrayed. No one understood me and thought I overreacted, saying, "We've all made an excuse to get out of something." And inferred I should have given her a pass on what was a little white lie.
Not that way I felt at all. Was completely devastated and couldn't imagine sitting across from her and ever trusting (her) again.
