Don't know your history or what happened with your T but if you think about it, any sort of attractive woman and any sort of attractive man meeting weekly more or less will set off some fires. Doesn't matter who it is, or where it is, at work, at the therapy office, wherever. In their minds, men are men. That's just the way it is. They shouldn't act it out though, unfortunately some of them do. But, I believe a male therapist, is firstly, a male. Has the same reactions to an attractive vulnerable woman as anyone else. It's too bad when they take it upon themselves to act out though most of them can keep it to themselves or discuss in supervision. Had a T like that myself. Now I stick with female Ts. It's too bad you had a bad experience and good to see you are making progress.
