Should I do this?

I?ve been thinking, and I think the attraction between me and my therapist may have been mutual. Our last conversation was especially odd? however I could also totally be misreading it? should I leave her a message and ask her about it before she?s gone at the end of the week?
 
speaking from a professional point of view here. Even if it was mutual it is probably a good thing that you are not seeing her anymore and just leave it be. Ethically if the therapist was feeling that way they would need to converse with their supervisor and then make decisions on switching you to someone new. They may or may not talk to you about it unless they felt that distancing themselves was going to harm the theraputic relationship. Honestly, the best thing to do is move on from her and get involved with a new therapist probably one of your same gender so that you don't have the same issues again. Just a gentle thought. I wish you luck though and have my support. :)
 
Good I am glad I could be of some help. I wish you a lot of luck and support though, a lot of support in finding the right therapist for you. So many times people just brush off therapy or therapist as a one size fits all and its not. So hopefully this time you'll find someone you connect with and will benefit from and not have as many worries about their behaviors. Good Luck hun! :)
 
I am not so much happy as it seems that this therapists behavior has caused you a lot of issues and I am hopeful for you to have someone that you connect with better. You can always ask about male therapists. Often people feel shy about being specific with their needs. I always tell people that if they want someone else they are more than welcome to change their minds everyone has differing styles. I just want everyone to have a chance to be happy.
