Guest guest Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Dear M, I would find a copy of UBM, read your therapist the exceprts that say a witch nada must be avoided, and NOT spoken to, for the protection of the child, even if her abuse is only verbal and not physical. If your therapist still doesn't listen, I would find a new therapist. Validation is the most important job of a therapist in my opinion.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Marie- I don't have much experience with therapists, but I do know that you have the right to set a boundary. If not having a relationship with your Nada is your boundary, then I would think that the therapist should respect that boundary. She still would have a lot to work on with you about dealing with how you have been treated by Nada, and how you can move on in your life, so what does it matter to her? Why is she pushing the issue with you. I would want to know the answer to those questions. Does she have any understanding of BPD? Di.

I think it is already time for a new therapist. - Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 Marie, Don't you think you should be able to leave your therapist with at least a little hope and the feeling you are understood and safe at least there? I sure do. Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
