In reply to My therapist terminated me by an email-what to do?, posted by alexis6 on September 10, 2004, at 21:08:38
Alexis, this is so shocking to me. No client ever deserves to be treated this way.
While I can understand (and admire) the fact that he acknowledged that he was unable to help you(regardless of the reason, at least he knew the relationship was not a good match), the fact he told you this over email is so heartless and seemingly unprofessional.
However, you can look at the bright side of this by knowing that you are out of this relationship. Had you continued with him, perhaps you would never have progressed (due to his ego beliving he could help you and you would have wasted valuable time and money) or perhaps if the attraction theory is correct, you may have ended up in a very unhealthy situation. So either way, you come out ahead. ANd it sounds like this new T may be a breath of fresh air for you.
But really, his behavior was very inappropriate and unprofessional. I am really mad for you!
