(You wrote) "My personal favorite was her parting comment, "It seems a shame that you were not placed into the right family of origin, but to then grow up and *choose* to have more problems is especially troubling."
I would have been tempted to say: "Hmm, you know, that's an interesting point. I shouldn't choose to have more problems, so, I won't choose you as my psychiatrist. Buh bye!."
Honestly, how can a doctor be so naive as to not understand why someone would be reluctant to divulge CSA? All I have is a psych minor but even I understand why there would be displaced shame, suppression, etc. Duh. And to scold you for it?!
I wouldn't want to be around someone like that for free, let alone pay them.
