This is clearly another huge red flat/loosening of boundaries; but you know this.
What is it that you would like to hear from folks in this forum? (I mean it respectfully. People seem tho echo that her behavior is not appropriate and you seem to know this too...) I know this hurts but: your therapeutic relationship at this point can go two ways: 1. She will continue with the boundary crossings/violations until it makes you incredibly uncomfortable/she abuses her power, OR 2. She will realize that she has been inappropriate and begin setting much stricter boundaries; this will lead you to feel unfairly rejected/like you did something wrong. Quote:

Listen, this post is making me really uncomfortable. I'm sorry. Can you call your insurance company and see what the coverage you have is? I fear your therapist is in over her head.

I know it's making everyone uncomfortable! And me too, but I just don't know how to confront T when she doesn't think she's doing anything wrong! I'm just at a loss and need some help I've never had this kind of trouble with a T before. Like I get it she's crossing the boundaries! She's just using me! But how do I know that for sure if she doesn't think anything is wrong?!

it really isn't your job to convince your T that she is crossing boundaries. your job is to take care of yourself. personally, i'd get a new T immediately since you confronted her the other day and she came up with all sorts of excuses for her behavior. as for how to know if what she is doing is wrong i'd say trust your gut. you aren't comfortable with her behavior and it goes against recommended therapeutic guidelines. she probably won't admit to doing anything wrong because she fears she might lose you as a client or worse fears you will report her. be careful about staying in a bad T situation. unless she can see what she is doing isn't beneficial for you, and so far she isn't, she isn't going to change her behavior. that means the boundary crossing will continue. that is why i recommend finding a more professional & ethical T. i know it's hard though. i am not suggesting this is easy to do.

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