Tive uma experiência ruim com um terapeuta, como posso voltar a fazer terapia?

Having a therapist betray your trust in such a vulnerable situation is a terrible thing. If this has happened to you, we are sorry. It’s very important, however, that you don’t let this dissuade you from seeking professional help, or associate what one therapist did with what all therapists will be like.

It’s okay if it takes you a long time to open up to a new therapist, and it’s okay if it takes you a long time to trust them. When you start working together, you can tell them (if you feel comfortable doing so) that you’ve had a bad therapist-client relationship before that caused you to distrust therapists, and that it may take you some time to open up and trust them. Any good therapist will understand and respect this. Give yourself time to heal, but don’t give yourself so much time that it turns into fear of returning to the work. Do virtual sessions if they’re easier for you, and give yourself time – just don’t let a bad therapist take away a massively valuable resource in your healing journey.
