On my hunt for a therapist, I'm very thankful to have come across drjessigold's advice.
or in a community with few resources—some people might not have much choice but to see the same provider as people they have a relationship with.
Let’s pretend we’re talking about a friend, in this example. While it’s unlikely that your friend was flat out lying to you when they suggested their therapist, the therapist-patient relationship is pretty sacred to people. It’s really not the same as merely introducing one person you like to another.
Some therapists have their own rules against working with people within the same social circle or family. So if this therapist already has their own reasons for not seeing a friend of a patient, that potentially will make the decision easier for you both. Ethically, they won’t be able to say what that conflict is exactly, but they are obligated to provide you with referrals. This termination of the relationship may even happen multiple sessions in, as this information might not be discovered at the start. Keeping both patients in a sensitive situation , however, would obviously not be productive or healthy for either party involved. The purpose is for both people to get better treatment, not worse.
Imagine being in a session and bad-mouthing your friend, or boss, or teammate. After listening to you, your therapist responds. Knowing that they work with your acquaintance, you begin to over-analyze any conversation, comment, or response they make about this person or your relationship.thinking was actually your therapist taking this other person’s side. Or, you may feel that they got fed the wrong information by, say, your best friend, and this is skewing their view of you.
