[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ individual therapists will pass no judgement or force the hand of any client that brings up having an affair.  Most of therapy these days is fluid and polyamory positive.  There is very little morality in therapy, particularly with younger therapists.  They will treat the individual, [b]but never conceive that 'hey--maybe it's this double life you are leading that is causing your anger and stress'.  Maybe if you 'picked one', you would not be ready to snap at any minute...and probably wouldn't need to drink as much alcohol to deal with your duplicity.[/b][/quote]

They're supposed to be leading the patient to this conclusion on his own. If it was as simple as someone telling him to do the right thing, or as you say, simply make a choice and own it, there wouldn't be so many people in this mess.[/quote]

Oh how wonderful,,, while they are waiting for that to happen...(mine was in therapy for 6 months before he ended the affair and told me--and she told him not to provide me with details; he fired her since she was doing more harm than good)...they might want to send an anonymous note to the spouse to go have an STI panel run.   And, he literally spiraled out of control in those 6 months, drinking more heavily--always before meeting...as she sat there collecting her fees and listening.  She did not bring up the affair in therapy much and he said they didn't talk about it much...just how to work on techniques to manage anger.  There are some very sh*tty therapists out there.

There are some terrible therapists out there, but cheaters also work hard to pick the therapist least likely to actually force them to deal with their issues. [/quote]
