I wasn't offended. I just wanted to clarify. People pick and choose among other professionals, but sometimes they (and it sounds like your H might be one of these) expect therapists all to be top-notch. Kind of like in the old days we had priests up on pedestals.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience after getting him to give it a try. But you know... if your H had one bad haircut, would he NEVER get his hair cut again? Or if he bought a lemon from a car dealer would he NEVER buy another car? But people have a bad experience with one therapist and they throw out the whole profession. Doesn't exactly make sense. <sigh>
