> What are you hoping the result will be?
I am hoping the result will be at least a warning that he should take his job more seriously and not do the same actions he did to me to another person.
It is often good to consider that before engaging in something that could end up being very triggering and painful for you and lasting for years.
What he DID to me is much more triggering and has caused SO much pain. I fired him almost 2 yrs ago and it is STILL painful what he did and has effected a lot of my other relationships. Turning him into the licensing board feels like justice and makes him take responsibility for his actions.I haven't done this on a whim, I have put a lot of thought into the process. If I turn my cheek on what he did, what does that say about me as a future T ? When people don't do anything about T's who do unethical things, it allows the problem to continue.
It is time for people to support the victims of therapist abuse, not help hide what they do by not doing anything about it.
Does your new T support this action?
Yes she supports me. Why wouldn't she, I am doing the right thing? My husband supports this too.
