I’m not a fan of psychotherapy and am currently suffering the fallout of boundary changes/crossings and the general “throw the client under the bus and ignore” technique -ignoring/silent treatment done “professionally “ and repeatedly in face to face /email/txt has to be one of the cruellest techniques they’re paid to perfect-I feel for OP

No I was just commenting on the original post. I have watched Grannon and Vaknin videos in the past. I recall both making some valid points, but i can no longer tolerate gasbags who think they understand life better than others.
I have not had a therapist take away privileges as OP describes, but did have a therapist dictate boundaries to me like i was a toddler. That therapist eventually threw me under the bus, and then ignored my attempts to continue dialog (silent treatment).
Ironic that these supposedly healing relationships have so many features of abusive and co-dependent relationships.
