[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Do not use and therapist under 45 for anything to do with marriage/infidelity, etc. Zero morals. A.G., you should use your license.[/quote]

I agree that therapists not used to dealing with infidelity can actually do a lot of harm, but think your age rule is arbitrary and nonsensical.  People who are cheating/have cheated need therapists trained in helping the cheater deal with the causes of the behavior and how to fix it.  That has to include the cheater being completely honest with himself/herself and spouse.  The secrets have to be erased.[/quote]

The millennial therapists have a much more fluid definition of marriage and monogamy. They have been very different from the older therapists.  The ones with 20+ years themselves under their belt and raised in a time where marriage and family were a sanctity counsel very differently.   Now everything is open marriages and polygamy and not taking any moral view whatsoever.  [/quote]

I don't think it is the therapists or their age, so much, but how lines have blurred in society. For example, churches used to be sacred space, now they are doing yoga and hosting prom in the National Cathedral. There are few things considered "sacred" anymore, it is not only marriage affected.[/quote]
