An Ally; she fought the husband along side her patient. She lost her impartiality (maybe her husband was a jerk too). I’m sure it could happen to a male therapist who lacks professionalism as well.
The second person they saw – who fixed them up nicely – said it took him another six months to undo the garbage from the first idiot. I think ultimately they saw him for a year and a half, give or take.
And definetely, it’s more open in the secular world, but usually there still is a stigma. And they are more open about everything, and how messed up they are. We try not to be.
Again, I think therapy can work wonders – if it’s necessary, and the therapist has real academic credentials, experience, and a real genuine brain. Which means they will cost a lot more. But divorce, I suppose, is more expensive.
