I struggle with this, as I've haven't experienced an unethical therapist, but do believe and read here that even if one that isn't a good fit can be harmful.
I don't really consider therapists the mental health system -but I found therapy so completely useless that I would never recommend anyone do it. Also, from my job, I would never ever recommend anyone see a psychiatrist or take the drugs they hand out - if someone chooses to do it, then I wouldn't tell them to stop or say anything really -but I certainly would not recommend it like it was a good thing to do.
