Was going to post this in the abuse forum but thought it would be more suitable here.
This regards my daughter who is 21, I found out early this year that she was sexually abused by my dad  My dad was on trial at the time for sexual abuse and was convicted and is now in prison, Anyway my daughter did not want to go the police in which I respected her wishes...Moving forward I got her a counsellor in which she has been going to now for 4 weeks this woman has been defending dad saying that you have to feel sorry for the abuser, Today my daughter came back from counselling so upset that I got on the phone and called this counsellor's manager up in which she said they have had complaints before, I am shocked, Also my daughter is given a questionnaire every week to see how her mood has been on a 1 to 10 scale, This woman changes it, Anyway the office are now investigating this counsellor and are giving my daughter another one, It is truly shocking, My daughter has gone for help not to be treated this way

Wow! No other agency you can use? I'd be angry that they have had complaints before and haven't done anything earlier. Your daughter should not have been put through that.

- I agree this is shocking and wrong for the counselor to say this. Very inappropriate and unsympathetic to your daughter. Good for you for complaining and I hope they speak to this counselor. Hope your daughter gets a better one who'll help her.

I'm so sorry for your daughter - and good for you for being a protective parent of an injured child, and good for your daughter for speaking up and telling someone what was happening. She shouldn't have had to go through that. At 21, I don't think I could have argued with the agency. And she shouldn't have been put in this position!!!

Yes, but complaints before about this counsellor and they decided they'd try her again using your daughter as guinea pig? I think I'd ask for a discount on further therapy or something.

I'm so glad you stood up and refused to let your daughter be further abused...and this time by a "therapist". The good T's can be great, but the bad ones are awful and can cause a lot of pain.

Oh goodness, that's horrific! I'm really sorry that your daughter had to go through that... on top of everything else that she's had happen.
 I hope that she will be able to give another T a chance to actually help her as this one failed so hugely

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
