Should a therapist keep a personal blog?

Posted by indigogal on October 30, 2006, at 11:17:57

First of all, hi :) I am new to psycho-babble. I just discovered this forum a couple of weeks ago and am so impressed w/ it so far! I am having an issue w/ my therapist and would love to hear what you wise men & women think, or if you've experienced something similar. Basically, I googled my therapist a few months ago and found a link to a blog she uses to keep in touch w/ her family. I read it, and continued to read it, and I didn't tell her. In the past few months I have felt sooooo guilty about this, but I was scared to tell her b/c I thought she might fire me. I finally told her recently. She basically said that my behavior was really aggressive, and that I was essentially stalking her online. But she isn't going to fire me b/c she thinks it has brought up some good issues for us to work though together. I really don't think it's that strange that I googled her, and to be honest I was pretty angry that she had a personal blog up in the first place. I know that the things I read affected our relationship. However, she is refusing to take any responsibility for the blog and she also is not allowing me to talk about the contents of it. I am starting to think this situation may not be salvageable and that I may have to stop working w/ her. I would be really sad if that happened, though :(
