Hated that therapist

It's amazing how quick she turned on Kate. She assumed she was drinking and reserved a place for her at a rehab center, I would have told her to get out of my house.

Me too. Not only was she completely over the line but she was obviously a horrible therapist! Not only towards Kate but also how she got conned so easily by the orphan! Didn't she actually say there was nothing wrong with her?! Such a hasty (and TERRIBLE) diagnosis! Kate should sue her.

"I'll shoot you. Really, I will. I have a gun and everything."

Yeah she should sue, she was taking the side of a manipulative girl she didn't know over her patient.

Want to note that diagnosing sociopathy is extremely difficult, but yes... no therapist would act the way she did. Once again, hollywood making fun of psychotherapists and making us all look bad.

The husband did the same thing.

The husband was a cheating POS that she should have left ages ago.

I can’t stand her either. I’ve been in and out of therapy since my teens. I’m in my 40s. A therapist is someone who is on your side. Yes, they look out for your well-being and report if you are a harm to others or yourself but all in all you are a team. I had to start back in therapy months ago and when my husband joined a session the first thing my therapist said was she was there to help and support me.
