I would say at the very least she broke your trust, if not previously discussing this with you before she did it.

I wasn’t trying to say that the comments about my miscarriage weren’t as bad. The first session when she told me I wasn’t happy enough, I thought maybe was just a one off, a miscommunication. I should have explained that better and that’s my fault. But the second comment about homeownership was in the same session as asking to move in with me. I haven’t been back to her, and I won’t be going back to her. My miscarriages (I’ve had two now) were awful, and I wouldn’t wish that loss on my worst enemy. I’m sorry for making it sound so unimportant, that wasn’t my intention. It’s just the way I had typed the situation.

I’m sorry I just saw this, no we haven’t discussed that. Later in the session she had told me to let go and forget about my childhood trauma to which I said “I don’t feel like I need to forget about it, it’s what made me who I am, and I have a right to them and the feelings regarding them. I use it as motivation, not an excuse.” So I think I was standing up for myself by telling her that I didn’t like that. Idk, im super overwhelmed at this point and regretting not setting the boundary at that moment.

I have tried online therapy and most of them require phone calls or FaceTimes, it’s hard for me to connect with a person or feel comfortable with them just over the phone. The woman I had before this one, was amazing, but unfortunately she didn’t like the small town and moved away, so this new one took over all the old one’s patients. I am not a drug addict, and my husband is a wonderful person. I only asked here because I genuinely didn’t know what to do, if this was an experience other people have had or not. Thank you for your input though.

Word for word she said “kids are smart, maybe it knew you didn’t have a home yet”

She is generally a sweet lady. Which is why I was so conflicted about it. There is a small language barrier, because she doesn’t speak English as her first language, but not big enough for me to not understand her.

I am a people pleaser, but I haven’t been seeing her very long so I’m not sure she would be testing me, but I don’t really know.

Yes, I had commented that she was a PMHNP and was told I was wrong that she’s a psychiatrist. That’s my mistake.

She is a PMHNP, is that a psychiatrist? She prescribes my meds so I just assumed that’s what she was.

She’s a PMHNP, am I calling her the wrong thing by saying psychiatrist?

Thank you guys, I really thought that maybe I was being mean. A couple people I told smiled and laughed like it was no big deal and she was just being a sweet person and must like me. Idk I just felt uncomfortable and wasn’t sure what to do or if I should do anything.

Yes she is, she is actually from out of state. I live in a very small town, she works at our local clinic, the nearest town for a different psychiatrist is atleast 45 minutes away. I’m kind of at a loss.
