Infatuated with my therapist

Posted by Mikhail99 on December 17, 2002, at 8:46:22

Hi all,

I know this topic has been discussed before and the overall sense I get is that I'm supposed to talk to him about this. I just can't imagine bringing it up. I have this scene in my head where he'll say, "Well, we're all done here, b'bye!" I know intellectually that isn't true but that's how my mind works. To add to the awkwardness of this is that he's also seeing my husband and I for communication issues. (We alternate appointments) I started seeing him about 3 months ago for anxiety problems and he's helped me a great deal. I started realizing a few weeks ago that I had feelings for him when I was censoring myself because I want to him to see me as likeable. I decided this isn't good and I need to bring it up. My sister (who is a psychiatric nurse) suggested I write him a letter; I can think carefully about what to say and then I'm not springing it on him in therapy. Does this sound like a good idea? Thank you!
