Am I the only one who has a woman therapist or pdoc? No one responded to my post about female clothes in the blue shirt thread and going through the list, it seems like everyone on that thread sees a male.
Did you all choose males on purpose, or were more men available to you as pdocs and therapists? I am curious whether many women perfer male therapists.
Also with men--are they more likely to go to a man or woman. When I am waiting for my therapist I have noticed the other person I am waiting with (for the other therapist in the office, who's also a woman) is most often a man. Maybe men feel more comfortable with a woman therapist. I have no idea.
I live in a city that (I think) has the highest therapist to general population ratio, so there is an enormous choice in chosing a therapist, unless perhaps you are in an HMO.
And I have picked up from some people (especially from Nikki) that they would love to go to anyone-male, female, or other.
