In reply to would it be OK to see a friend's therapist?, posted by JenStar on August 25, 2005, at 0:33:59
Jenstar,
I found that finding a good therapist is very difficult. I say this because for me it is a very unique relationship that you have to build. The main issue is whether or not you will be able to communicate with the therapist effectively.
If a friend came to me with the same offer, I would really have to consider if this friend knows me well enough to know how I will interact/communicate with this therapist. Many times people offer suggestions and advice based on their unique experience and not considering how others may view the same experience.
Other than that, I would not worry or even think twice about the privacy issue.
If you have the opportunity to connect with a "great" therapist, grab it.
My two cents
