A good friend is in the process of shopping for therapists. So far, he's done several sessions each with three different ones. When he left the first one, he canceled by mail and received a nice letter in response, saying the therapist understood and wished him well. With the two others, he's raised concerns by e-mail, and the therapists have gotten straight-out nasty and insulting.
I'm wondering if this happens more in e-mail conversations about therapy, because it's never happened to me this extremely - but I've never e'd a therapist.
To me, the way a therapist reacts when one decides not to see them any more reflects a lot about their character, sense of confidence and so on.
