Is your therapist crossing boundaries, creating new issues instead of solving old ones? Crossing boundaries by forming a sexual relationship with a patient is not only wrong, it is illegal.
Therapy malpractice can consist of a wide range of behaviors/improper care.
Some of the names for the various kinds of malpractice are:
- Boundary Violations
- Dual Relationships
- Improper Termination of Therapy
- Abuse of Transference
- Breach of Confidentiality
- Misprescription of Medications
- Sexualization of the Therapy Relationship
- Sexual Contact by a Psychotherapist
We place our greatest trust, our most vulnerable selves, into the hands of the therapeutic professional. We expect to be cared for appropriately and competently. There are ethical guidelines and professional standards of care which therapists must follow.
We practice from the philosophy that injury to the psyche, psychological injury and betrayal, is the most damaging of all traumas.
We help you hold inappropriate therapists accountable for their unprofessional behavior.
