Wow, that's really awful. How long had you been in this group? And are there any members of his/her supervisory team available to help you guys cope?

Just out of curiosity, how did you find out? I would think they would've told you something like, "He decided to take an offer elsewhere ... blah blah blah."

Wow that is so sad and shocking.

How utterly sad that this T was in such a bad place that they did this and were unable to reach out.

Glad that extra help is being offered - Hope you are Ok - SD

Hey Tay,

I am so sorry to hear this, it must be awful for anyone who know the T personally and as a client. It is so sad that they felt it was the only way out of the way they were feeling or what they were experiencing.

I can only imagine what the Clients of this T are going through.

How long were you in the DBT group for? How are you feeling since hearing about the death of the T?

Massive hugs!
Thanks for this!

I know very little about your own background, Tay, but I remember your recent post in Poetgirl's thread and this must be devastating for you even though you haven't been in group for a couple of years.
Please take good care of yourself and get extra support when you need it.

It's official. I can even make therapists crazy.

Thanks so much for the support. I wish i could give more details but i am afraid of being recognized on here. I am doing okay, just feeling really shocked and sad. I knew him for 7 years, had him for several different groups, only one of which was DBT. He was well loved by many, and helped countless people move forward in their own lives, including me.
