Hah. Sadly this could sometimes be useful, lest the person stays in therapy talking nonsense with no path forward.

I dunno what me talking nonsense in addition provides.

I think most decent therapists can see through that.

You would hope so, but some patients are convincing. And strategies are built on what is presented.

Are most patients able find and recognize a decent therapist?

I think so. I'd imagine most people who have been in therapy for a while have one story of a shit therapist.

Like the one who told me that 13yo boys shouldn't be interested in sex

Except the partner of the patient doing this makes them automatically not trustworthy and in fact major boundary crossing.

Unnecessary. The therapist can already see through the lies.

(Your therapist knows more about you than you think.)

This action itself should make the therapist believe the patient so much more cause this would be major boundary crossing.

No it didn't happen this way, let me tell you....(Proceeds to argue once again).

is this a porn reference

No, that's the rapey court.

Common point of confusion.

At that point.. just shave the damn thing.

Big yikes.

Hell yeah, Go on King!

I don't think therapists care, a crazy customer is a returning customer.
