[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would try talking with your sister, with the therapist on the phone with you or on video with you. Maybe a small amount of contact, and venting of issues on your sister’s part, would help. Or at least the therapist may help you to get your sister to stop the inappropriate and harassing levels of reaching out and could be a witness if it does come to needing a restraining order.[/quote] If the sister has been honest/forthcoming with the therapist, no legitimate therapist would suggest reaching out. The therapy would focus on the sister learning to manage her own feelings and reactions. "Venting" is not going to move the sister closer to recovery, it will only reinforce her feelings. A real therapist would not suggest this as long as the sister is harassing OP. [/quote] I would still be kind, and try to help the sister, with the therapist’s support. [/quote]
