I really want to say thanks to each one of you for your support. It feels so good to know that there are good people on earth. Sometimes I need to be reminded of that.
My therapist's behavior is worse in individual therapy than in the group. Mainly because she doesn't talk as much in the group, since there are other people who want to talk. I also believe that it's easier for her in the individual therapy because I'm the only one there.
I've talked to her about the problems a lot. She really resists what I'm saying. I asked her recently if she thinks she has done anything wrong, and she said the only thing she did wrong was not to do as much cognitive therapy as originally planned. She is awfully insecure. Sometimes she looks like she is about to cry in our sessions...though that's sad, it's very unprofessional and a therapist shouldn't put a client through that.
It's very true that doctors won't step on each others toes. Especially the other therapist in the group, because he works with her so much, and if he agreed with any criticism of her, it would create tension in his daily life. I learned about doctors covering each others backs...I learned the hard way, when my Lasik doctor did horrific things to me (long story), and the doctors I saw afterward covered his ass in my medical records.
I'm ready to be done with this woman, and move on to a healthy therapy relationship. I owe it to myself.
