If your therapist is like the therapist on Ted Lasso…maybe get a new therapist.

She lets him follow her home! Inside her home! No boundaries whatsoever! The romance will-they-won’t-they that the show is setting up is completely inappropriate. You do not hang out with former clients and you definitely do not romantically engage with them. I will stop watching if he gets over his ex by boning his therapist.

The job of a good therapist is to build relationship and support your needs wherever you’re going. It’s not to smack you in the face with Hard Truths About Yourself that you’re not ready to hear. I suspect the clinicians who do practice this way have some unmet needs regarding dominance and control.

And my last complaint about her is that while I don’t know the ethics codes for sports psychologists, many therapists try to avoid seeing people who are close friends (with each other) for individual therapy as it can cause a conflict of interest, or it can be hard for the clients. It’s not always possible but this is why many teams just contract out for an EAP rather than having just one person on staff.

I’m saying the kidnapper was neglecting them! My understanding was that kiddo had been kidnapped at least days or weeks before he was found in the car. Did I misread?

I’m guessing that the lady who stole the car and the kid wasn’t exactly taking amazing care of the infant who happened to be in the backseat.

Also, Good Samaritan laws are a thing! People defend big companies on the grounds that “they’ll get sued if the food is bad” but there are laws preventing that.
