Joslynn, take a work break if you need to. I certainly need to from time to time or I never get anything done!
But please don't leave. The truth is that it's nearly impossible to never ever make anyone feel criticized. You've made your position quite clear. I agree with it entirely. Therapists who sleep with their clients should be given some especially exquisite punishment. Not only are they betraying their professional ethics, their possible spouses, the clients they are sleeping with who nearly always end up in bad shape, but most importantly to me they are jeopardizing every single therapeutic relationship they have.
Every delicate soul out there who has tentatively put their trust in their therapist is likely to have their therapist disbarred and unlicensed and thus abandoning them and betraying their trust.
If my therapist EVER puts one little toe out of line on the sex with a client issue and EVER puts his license in jeopardy, and my relationship with him in jeopardy, because of sex, I swear I will join his wife in making his life a living h*ll and do my best to make sure his next life is no better.
Please don't leave. What you said is important. You weren't blaming a client. And it's NOT just one client on this board. It's happened way more than once.
