[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm new to this thread, and don't mean to be rude, but I too am surprised,given your profession, on how you chose to handle your MIL. Wouldn't you counsel a client to stand up for themselves in a very polite, but direct manner, rather than run to DCUM? Your MIL needed to be put in her place and I'm surprised you didn't have the sense to do that. [/quote] This seems like a really strange expectation of mental health professionals: they should not have the same emotional range, need to vent (in a safe and anonymous forum no less) and vulnerabilities as the rest of the world. [/quote] OP here, I'd also like to point out therapists are not to be confused with advice columnists. I don't counsel anyone to take any particular course of action, but rather I aid (as would any proficient therapist) a person find the course of action which best suits their needs and capacities.
