There is a line from the book In Session - the Bond between Women and their Therapists that I really found poignant: "Therapy is...like having your heart professionally broken".
I'm beginning to wonder about a system that encourages us to become so emotionally close to someone who, because of that closeness, has such power and ability to hurt us. As Shelli said, hopefully we can still learn enough from the therapy to go on, but in many cases a broken heart in the process is practically guaranteed. My 2 cents, sorry it's so negative.Marie
