Messed up
Today, my therapist told me she can’t see me by herself anymore because frankly I have so many problems, I need separate therapists, each with their own specialties, to work together on me as a team. I didn’t think it was that bad. FML

Today, after breaking down in front of my therapist over some really sensitive issues, she decided to also break down. Not about my story but about her own life. I'm not being paid to comfort and console my therapist. FML

Special case
Today, and every time I meet a new therapist for support, I’m told that my issues are out of their scope of practice, and I get referred to someone who’s supposed to more experienced, and then get told the same thing. I’m too fucked up to even get the therapy I need to get better. FML

Transference
Today, my psychiatrist of 6 years suddenly and out of nowhere told me I need to see someone else. She gave me the equivalent of the "it's not you, it's me" speech. Actually her assistant told me via email. I basically got broken up with by someone I was paying a lot of money to talk to. FML

Today, my psychologist broke up with me, professionally. It's alright though, she told me it's her, not me. FML

Breakups are hard
Today, and for the last three months, I’ve felt super incompatible with my therapist, but I don’t know how to fire her. FML

Pfft.. Don't waste your time going to that moron then. Look for a new therapist op, there's better out there?... There are others who could handle your instability. I think..

Maybe s/he didn't WANT to specialise in whatever illness or issues the OP is presenting with rather than having chosen to not learn it because they were lazy. How naive of you to assume that all therapists treat the exact same shit - marriage therapists are not going to be able to go the job of clinical therapists and clinical therapists can't do the job of addiction therapists and addiction therapists and (probably not) going to be any good with children that require therapy. To assume the therapist is in the wrong for stating that their qualifications are not in the field that the OP needs (and I strongly believe the wording has been ad-libbed or has been taken out of context) is incredibly dense.

At least he's being honest. Most of these pseudo-therapists with the education of a rock would stretch it out over 6 months then refer you to one of his partners.

There are different therapist that handle different fields. I'm sure he could referral you to someone else to handle your needs. Just be happy you didn't waste one extra session with someone that couldn't help you. ***Keep in mind, most therapist are screwed up themselves. O.o

What did you tell them? How you have a voice in your head that tells you to kill the entire staff of Walmart because they don't move fast enough.
