I had trouble finding and trusting a new therapist. I still have trouble trusting her.
My experiences were similar to what you describe here:
The psychiatrist tried to continue ‘therapy’ after he stopped the intimacies, too. But we could never return to the topics that brought me to therapy again. Therapy became about (mostly me) talking about the ‘relationship.’
It kills me he was paid by me and my insurances for all of these visits.
It kills me that he could have done *nothing* therapy-wise and that would have been tons better than what he elected to do.
He didn’t have to cure me. He could have done nothing. He could have just not HURT me.
Now I still have the issues that brought me to therapy plus the new traumas he gave me.

It was difficult to trust T because when I was inpatient all docs and Ts talked to each other about patients, I didn't trust anyone there.
When I started to see my current T I was afraid she could know any of hospitals workers and talk to them, I also was afraid that she could find out who he is and report him but she said that it's against her ethics to do it.
I have never paid my doc, it's miserable for man to ask money for session which is date
I can't say that my relationship with him influenced anything about therapy to others. I don't regret that I was his lover, it hurts that it's over.
