on how therapist handle suicidal patients.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
Thanks for this!

There is also a post on that site by a therapist who talks about a client of hers who died. The thing that struck me most was that the therapist kept referring to herself as Dr. Joyce when talking to clients rather than by her first name.

Things like these articles just make me more certain not to tell the therapist anything because of how smug, to me, the therapists always sound. The idea of a therapist thinking they are handling me is extremely off putting to me.
