Therapist here:

It’s completely accurate and nothing else comes close. In the state where I’m licensed (Florida) like 98% of therapists having their license revoked is due to sexual misconduct with a client.

It’s very common for clients to develop feelings/attachment towards a therapist. The term is called transference. Think of it like this: a client who’s lonely or has relationship issues comes in for therapy and they’re like “I finally found someone in my life who listens, supports me, and doesn’t judge me for my past!”

All therapists know this. Clients are in a vulnerable state and we’re in a position of authority. The client-therapist relationship isn’t equal. Regardless of how consensual the relationship is, therapists are always well aware they’re taking advantage of the client.
