Searched the net for words that mean Therapist. I wanted to find an endearing to call my T that felt safe. Here are the words that I found:
terapista-spanish
therapeute-french
therapeutin-german
therapeuta-italian
kundalini-very hard to grasp this meaning
metanoia-change ones mind,profound transformation
pedagogue, preceptor, sage, tutor,healer,shaman,mender,manarishi, and magical stranger
Not what I was looking for but there must be a word out there that describes the r/s. Does anyone have other words that describe therapist and the clients r/s to the therapist? Therapist seems to be to general cause it can refer to pt, ot, rt, st and other therapies. Maybe I will create a word.

I heard the word, 'shaman' used.

we call ours our Talker Lady or our Teacher sometimes. We also have a nickname for her, so we just call her "Our ______" (her nickname)
