A client, who had been seeing their therapist for three years, started to feel that the therapist wasn’t a great fit for them. The client cited several reasons, including the therapist’s chronic tardiness, pushing practices they didn’t use, and feeling like the therapist was just phoning it in. When the therapist announced that she would no longer be taking insurance and would be charging $200/hr, the client decided to end their relationship. What followed was a tense exchange that left both parties questioning their actions.
