> How perfectly dreadful!!! I'm not sure I'd *want* to go to anyone he recommended. But that's just me. I'm a stubborn soul. On the other hand, I'd probably be finding another therapist if only for them to request my files and possibly talk with him, and let me know what on earth happened. In my state, you can request your own files, but I don't know that I'd want to look at the files in this case without a professional being present.

> I'm truly sorry this happened to you. I wish that therapists had a better understanding of what termination means to a client. On the bright side you're clearly better off without this therapist, and the saddest thing is that he didn't terminate all his clients and allow them to find better therapists. That being said, perhaps the reasons had very little to do with you, and a lot to do with him. Maybe you stirred up something in him that he couldn't handle, but that had no negative implications about you.

Thanks Dinah, I'm sorry I didn't realize that this board was for other types of posts. I appreciate your kind response, I'm trying pretty hard to look on this as a positive. Cheers, Alexis
