I can’t even express how angry I am on your behalf. For her to minimize and essentially compare your troubles to those of others is reprehensible.

Do you have other options? Can you seek out a new therapist?

In my opinion, there’s no way back from a comment like this — it makes you not only doubt the severity of your issues, but it might make you hold back from sharing in the future. She’s not trustworthy, at this point.

I am so very sorry for her lack of judgment and sensitivity.
