[quote:Anonymous Coward 33415010:MV80ODEyNTgwXzg3ODAyNzMxXzc3QUU2NEY5] [quote:LuckyLou:MV80ODEyNTgwXzg3ODAyMzAxXzVCOEE5RkU2] I had a very bad experience with a therapist. Saw her for 7 years & it wasn't until I ended up broken that I realized how destructive she was I thought it was just me but bad therapy is the norm, I've learned. My guess is she thought he was inferior due to not having a job and his mom paying for therapy. He likely confessed some deepest darkest opinions to her. In her mind this excused her toxic therapy. Therapists are so status obsessed that they simply are incapable of helping people. And most of all COMPETITIVE. Competitive, one upping control freaks were never made for caring for vulnerable people. Its often sexual without actual sex, doesn't matter if therapist is too old or too young. Their clients often fall in love with them & they encourage it. Theres another political spectrum that is very real and runs very deep. [/quote] [b]I'm sorry that you went though that. :([/b] I've only heard of one good experience with therapy. After a health issue from a drug with a black box warning, a friend started with a clear plan action and a set end time (6-9 months later) Therapy worked and she moved on with her life. But before my husband, I know of 2 other people who ended up much worse after 4 or more years of it. Hope things are back on track for you. "Sexual without the actual sex." Exactly, perfect way to put it. I guess I see this therapist as having superpowers now with new revelation about her Father. Before I just saw her as a hack. (bad yelp reviews yet somehow she's always booked) In some ways the whole thing is much more toxic because of her social distancing rules. Husband can't see her in person and forbids me to be remotely near his home office when talking to her. [/quote]

Husband had some normal depression after job loss. My Mother in law has always been very controlling. She is a former dean of school near DC.
She inserted herself and made my husband go see a therapist she selected.
This was 4 years ago.
He went from being a good and strong man to a very scary and angry person since seeing this therapist.
I researched her and begged him to stop seeing her as she is an atheist humanist liberal.
He said since his Mother was paying for the therapist he might as well keep going.
Anyway, I looked her up again recently since he has gotten worse and now wants a divorce and says he hates me (I am a loving trad wife so this hurts a lot)
Her father's obituary is now first result.
Her father was a founder of the CIA's shrink unit.
Apparently shrink under 5 presidents.
Surreal.
His last work on this Earth was to write an anti Trump book.
I told my husband this and he's not remotely concerned.
Anyone reading this can figure out who I'm talking about and his shrink daughter with a bit of sleuthing.
I now am faced with a husband who acts hell bent on ruining me and since I knew him for years BEFORE "therapy", this all seems like it hinges on 4 years with this woman "shrinking" him.
What chills me no end is that all the happy times together are gone from his memory.
Instead I'm subjected to nonstop mental torture no matter how hard I try to cook, clean, and be super nice.
Should I be scared? Now that I found that obit, things make more sense. He acts brainwashed. Did I also mention my husband is very handsome and the shrink acts flirty with him even though she's 25 years older than him?
