Yes Cindy I was thinking the same thing. I recently wrote a note to my former psychoparmacologist/therapist suggesting the same thing you'd do about it - that it would be "theraputic" to understand why this was happening and see if we couldn't understand it together and make some progress.
Wow was I surprised - and hurt quite deeply when she said in an e mail to me to try to work through it with my talk therapist. I was crushed. Do you think I was expecting too much? Did she not want to handle such a situation? Did she feel partially responsible for the situation by her revealing so much to me that I would eventually become attracted to her?
She said that no more communication would be appropriate since she was not my pdoc anymore - even though I simply stated that I wanted to have an appointment to clear the air - that it was troubling me still from about a couple of years ago when we were meeting. I'm really confused.

I've had a couple of other female pdocs that this didn't happen with....
