[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. My wish or expectation for the two to connect is simply to coordinate and perhaps some information could be shared with the MFT that might accelerate our treatment plan. My assumption is that after 6 years, his therapist would have some information that could be helpful to our therapist in moving us forward.  I worked in mental health a long time ago and even then, this was a pretty standard request. And the fact that our MFT seemed surprised and said she had never been told no before seems to underscore how strange it is. [/quote]

OP, this seems like an incredible violation.  And I’m going to be in the minority and say I can absolutely see a therapist having a policy that prohibits her from sharing info. It’s clear - she won’t need to parse the need and whether it’s really good for her client and noncoerced. She won’t have to worry how her words will be interpreted by another therapist. You are asking her to open a can of worms for this amorphous “accelerate treatment.”  [/quote]
