Should I tell my therapist I find her attractive?

Question

It’s been in the back of my mind for a while now. I think she knows tbh but should I disclose to her? I’ve been also getting dirty dreams about her. I don’t know if it’s necessary to say or not tho.

Accepted Answer

NO. You should also probably find a new therapist. Therapy should not cause MORE internal conflict. Good luck.

Answer

If you finding her attractive is getting in the way of effective therapy, you need to find a new therapist. If you tell her chances are she will recommend the same.

Answer

As someone in the psychology field. You do need to tell her. Therapist relationships are strictly professional and she may need to find you someone else to see that will help you with whatever you are seeking therapy for. If all you think about is her when you are at your sessions then this is not helping you. ❤️ so please tell her and get yourself the help that you need.

Answer

FIND A NEW THERAPIST!

Answer

You’re finding her attractive only because she’s the only one that knows you deeply. It’s actually pretty common to feel this way, it mostly happens to teenagers though because they fall for anyone lol
I suggest getting a new therapist because your crush is going to get in the way of your healing

Answer

I wouldn't say anything but I would find a new therapist at this point. Lead your new therapy session with the reason why you left these therapy sessions.

Answer

if you finding her attractive is going to interfere with your therapy and progress in any way, then you should tell her to see if she’s able to find you another therapist. if she’s unable to find you one, there’s always therapists online. i’m not sure if you’re open to therapy through zoom, but that’s always an option.

Answer

I was about to say absolutely not but they are actually trained to handle these situations. I think it’s important to bring it up so they can guide you through these feelings.

Answer

No. You should get a new therapist and move on with your life. She’s not there to find a romantic partner. She’s there to get paid and help people through therapy. Remember she getting paid to be kind to people, listen to them and help them as she can. She’s not doing it special just for you.

Answer

She would recommend you find a new therapist
