THERAPY IS SUPPOSED TO RESTORE NOT RETRAUMATIZE THE PATIENT!!
Most psychologists that I have had in the past two decades have retraumatized me severely!!! I am doing so much better psychologically since I've quit therapy two years ago.
I'll break it down for you. When I was seeing the unethical Dr. Richard Geist I was a kleptomaniac, selling my body for money (pornography) and an alcoholic drinking 4-5 vodka dinks a day!! I was having affairs on my husband, and very close to having my first nervous breakdown.
Since I went to the licensing board and reported Dr. Richard Geist for sexually exploiting me and ending therapy I gave up stealing (no longer a kleptomaniac). I gave up selling my body (no longer doing pornography) and I gave up vodka. Now I drink 2 glasses of red wine a night. I still have a long way to go. But I know one thing - I will NEVER GO BACK TO THERAPY!!!
I am here to warn people about abusive therapists and encourage people that they can heal on their own!! I am a living example of it!! I am making it my life's mission to educate people. It starts out with "your special" "I care for you" "call me" It turns into a codependency - and then you are hooked, thinking you can't live without them!!!
Don't let this happen to you!!!!
