Genuinely had a therapist like this. Kept telling her my problems were from an abuse relationship I had in high school, and she kept insisting it couldn't've been that, it had to've been my parents. Despite me repeating ad nauseum that my parents were supportive and loving. Needless to say I did not continue seeing her.

Edit: changed of to 've because of grammar nazi

I had a slew of therapists in my adult life, some were amazing, some were... less so.

My last therapist had me down for 30 minutes a month, and spent the majority of every session telling me what his unique, special "approach" to therapy was, his tenants and his approaches, and then how he covers it in detail in his upcoming book and new Youtube channel.

My parents and life growing up was more than a disaster, it was a cult-like situation, but it's very hard to find anyone who wants to talk about it or address it, I assume because it's complicated and difficult to find an entry for in the DSM5.

Doors open, psych begrudgingly allowed in.

Because we're into science. Not scientology.
