Finding a new therapist has been extremely difficult. The first one was just wayyyy to nice. She was talking to me as if i was a baby. It was some kind of creepy. The second one was accepting phone calls and answering the door during our session. She laid back in her chair as if she had a big lunch and discussed her mortgage for like 10-15 minutes. I'm like wtf... The third and final one told me that i was to quiet for therapy and to come back when i feel ready to talk She had a really spitty mouth and had the nerve to be snacking on fruits and chips during the session. I am going through so much just trying to get over previous T. All of this is just too much for me right now. I think i'm just gonna take a break from it all. (therapy and medication)

Are these private therapist or in public hospital? I mean that is unprofessional and that should be said to their supervisor.

I couldn't believe my ears and eyes. People were knocking on the door bringing in papers and calling her office phone. The thing that was most upsetting is that we were discussing a very difficult topic when her cell phone rang. She looked me dead in the eye and said "sorry i gotta take this". Then she laid back in her chair and started discussing property size and mortgage rates. Unbelievable!!! It was just an awful experience. I don't really know if i have the mental energy to keep looking for a therapist. Looking back on this experience though, i think i will go back and report her.

I know how difficult the search can be! I saw one who's office was in his home. His daughter needed to use the computer so we had to go into his basement and sit in beach chairs. After just a few minutes he told me the problem was my mother and she must be a really horrible person. I would need to meet with him 3-4 times per week in order for him to help me. The best part was he told me I needed to call my insurance company to find out how much they would pay him so we would know the difference between that and his billable rate. When I called my Ins. co. they told me not to worry about it. He knew what the rate was and had agreed to accept it. I only needed to pay him my co-pay not the difference. I never went back to him.

That's just so crazy and creepy. Who can you really trust these days? Did you end up finding a good therapist? I haven't had any good luck so for the moment i gave up.
